This is the wiring diagram from my 8.0 BTDA manual that I am using for debug.

Those were some of my discoveries also and the reason I drew up the schematic - not in the SR drawings nor the generator drawings; at least for the 400DA.Fixed it! Error by yours truly. This generator has two oil switches. One for low pressure shutdown and an auxiliary for Sea Ray system monitor alarm. I had analyzed the auxiliary had gone bad, bought its part number and replaced it. But noooo! After tracing wire colors it was the shutdown switch that went bad and I put an aux switch part number in its spot. Jumpered it and runs on and on normally now. The two switches are different so gotta go buy the right one. Now he has a spare aux oil switch. Ha!
Also I discovered the power runs serially through both the on generator stop switch and the remote panel start/run switch. With the remote panel switch off, that creates an open circuit. You have to put it in the run position for the generator to continue running when started from the on generator switches.
The one with the thicker white wire going to it is the shutdown sensor. You’ll probably need to scrap the red paint away from the wire to see it. The system monitor switch is a smaller black wire with white stripe.Great tip on the 2 oil pressure switches! I have seen them, and wondered why. Thanks for the teaching! This will be good to know for future troubleshooting.
2 things. 1. Check the fuse in the side of the control panel on the generator itself. 2. Make sure the stop actuator is actually extending and shutting off the fuel when you press the stop switch.
Fuse is for sure good. The stop switch on the generator panel works fine, but the one on the remote panel does not work at all.
