Welcome to the forum. Need more information. Is this in a motorhome, if so what year, make model, etc. Is there an auto start on the genset? It could be self starting for low batts, program temp sensor in the HVAC etc.

You need to get with Gjac above his Kohler won't start at all and you can't keep yours from starting.

If your generator is not equipped with auto start, it could be a wiring-related issue.
