Problems That Keep Your Generator From Working

Your home generator is supposed to start automatically, run quietly, and give you power without a second thought. When it does not, you notice right away. Lights flicker, appliances shut off, or the control panel flashes a warning. Waggoners Home Services finds what is keeping your generator from doing its job and fixes it so you can count on backup power whenever you need it. Learn more about our home generator repair services.

The Generator Will Not Start When the Power Goes Out

You expect the generator to kick on automatically, but instead, nothing happens. This usually means the starting system is not getting the signal or the battery is not supplying enough power. We inspect every connection, test the starter, and verify that the controls respond exactly when they should so your generator powers up reliably during an outage.

Power Output Drops or Feels Unstable

If the lights dim or appliances strain when the generator is running, your system is not producing steady voltage. That can point to issues with the voltage regulator, wiring, or fuel flow. Our technicians measure real-time output, adjust controls, and restore stable, consistent power to your home.

The System Hesitates or Shuts Off Unexpectedly

A generator that stalls or shuts down during operation cannot protect your home. Most often, this comes from sensor errors, clogged filters, or minor control faults. We run a full diagnostic, clear obstructions, and confirm that your system runs smoothly from startup to shutdown.

Loud or Unusual Noises During Operation

If you hear knocking, rattling, or grinding, something inside the housing is loose or wearing out. Ignoring it can cause damage to other components. We identify the source, tighten or replace what is needed, and make sure your generator runs quietly and efficiently again.

Fuel or Exhaust Smells Around the Unit

Any strong odor near your generator is a warning sign. Leaking fuel or exhaust not only wastes energy but can also create safety risks. We inspect every line and fitting, test for leaks, and repair or replace parts to keep your generator sealed and operating safely.

Visible Damage or Corrosion on the Enclosure

Cracks, rust, or water buildup on or inside the generator cabinet can lead to shorts and performance loss. We clean the housing, remove corrosion, replace damaged panels, and reseal all openings so the unit stays protected against Oklahoma weather.

Upgrade to Dependable Backup Power

Standby generators are built to last, but there comes a point when replacement is more sensible than continued repair. If your unit struggles to start, cannot support essential loads, or requires major repairs year after year, upgrading may provide better reliability and lower operating costs. Waggoners Home Services evaluates the complete system so you have clear information before you decide.

Our technicians review capacity needs, transfer switch compatibility, startup performance, and overall condition of the engine and controls. If repairs will restore dependable operation, we will recommend that path.

If the generator is undersized for your home or the cost of repair rivals the cost of replacement, we will outline models and installation services that fit your home and budget. Advantages of upgrading include:

  • Automatic operation during outages with fast startup
  • Right capacity for appliances and comfort systems
  • Quiet performance and improved energy efficiency
  • Expert installation, testing, and setup for reliability

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Generator Repair

How much does it cost to service a whole-house generator?

The cost of generator repair or maintenance depends on the type of unit, the issue, and the parts required. Smaller repairs may involve cleaning air filters or replacing spark plugs, while more complex service could include testing the transfer switch or repairing wiring.

Waggoners Home Services begins every home generator repair with a complete inspection and written estimate so you know the cost and scope of work before we begin. Our generator services keep your backup generators running safely and efficiently during power outages.

What is the most common generator failure?

The most common issue we see with home generators involves batteries that fail to hold a charge or fuel systems that develop clogs. Other potential issues include worn spark plugs, low oil levels, or transfer switch malfunctions that prevent power delivery to the house. Our professional technicians diagnose problems quickly and perform generator repair to restore full capacity and optimal performance. Routine maintenance helps prevent these failures and protects your investment long term.

Is it worth repairing a generator?

Yes. Most backup generators can be repaired rather than replaced. Common generator repair work includes fixing battery chargers, cleaning fuel lines, or replacing filters. When proper maintenance and annual service are performed, even older standby generators continue to operate reliably for many years. Waggoners provides professional service for all major brands, including Generac generators, ensuring dependable operation and peace of mind every time the power goes out.

Who can service a Generac or standby generator?

Only licensed electricians and trained generator technicians should service a Generac or any standby generator. Waggoners Home Services has a professional team experienced with Generac models and other major brands.

We handle generator installation, repair, and routine maintenance safely, checking batteries, fuel connections, and electrical components to ensure the system operates as designed. Our experts maintain long-term reliability and compliance with manufacturer warranties.

How often should a home generator receive maintenance?

We recommend annual maintenance or service after every 100 to 200 hours of operation, depending on the model and manufacturer’s instructions. Regular generator maintenance includes checking oil levels, replacing filters, inspecting wiring, and testing automatic startup functions.

Waggoners offers scheduled maintenance programs that keep standby and portable generators ready at a moment’s notice. Proper maintenance prevents minor problems from developing into costly emergency repairs.

How does my generator protect my home during power outages?

A properly installed home generator automatically restores electricity to essential appliances when utility power fails. It powers heating and cooling systems, refrigerators, sump pumps, and lighting until power returns.

Waggoners Home Services provides complete generator repair and installation services in Norman and Oklahoma City to ensure your system delivers consistent power and protects your home during every storm. Our technicians test every unit thoroughly to confirm it will respond instantly when you need it most.
