This seems to be a common problem, but only when the digital is fairly new.

If you haven't seen this link provide; it does provide a little more information.

Just a guess but it could be a bad thermister or the small plug from the thermister to the jack in the back of the tower. You can check the small plug by taking the cover off the back of the tower. Then check the wires as well as the plug maybe the plug is loose? Hope Brian can help further.

 Try this and see if it helps.

Unplug the sensor cable and check to make sure the ends are clean.
Then check the connection; by wiggling one side of the connection and then the other, if the "E1" message temporally goes away while you were wiggling one side, you need a new sensor cable connector.
If this does not correct the problem, you will have to open the generator up and check the connection inside the generator. Also, remove the back cover of the tower and check the connection inside as well.
There are only three components that will cause an E1 error. (Or a burnt out control box but that would be a first)


Its one of these components that's giving you the E-1 error
