I have a propane powered Cummins 13kW off-grid generator. Can anyone help me identify the wires on the unit to attach wiring for an on/off switch for the generator? I can provide a link to the manual for the generator if that helps. I had this setup with a Generac model that finally gave up the ghost, however, the wiring harnesses in the Cummins model are more abundant and confusing.

Attach the switch to the ground leads off the ignition coil or coils.

I think the OP wants to wire up a remote start system. ??? Surely the manufacturer should have that data available online?

I assume its a battery ignition vs magneto, so just open the power to + coil. Magneto, grounding - would be fine. I'd be willing to bet its set up for remote starter kit now, you just have to research it. Heck, my Honda EU6500is is sey up for remote on/off/start.
I assume it has its own 12V battery charging system, so you dont want to kill just ignition, but all other circuits. Still easily doable, plus a push button starter switch.
Give us model, we can research it and come up with an answer.
