I bought this generator (the Duromax xp9000ih) in May 2023. I test ran it on propane for about 20 min then, ran fine. Just had our first 30 min power outage and it again worked great. I slowly unloaded the circuits down to zero, disconnected the cable, then shut it down using the rocker switch. After it fully stopped running (engine was still), I heard a VERY loud bang - much louder than the sound the generator makes while running. Now, the start light will no longer come on, and pressing the button does nothing.
My question to those of you that have had blown solenoids - is that what I heard? I haven't had time to open it up yet and look for what it may have been, but will after work. Just wondering how loud a solenoid is when it goes, or maybe if I have a different issue.
