Onan HGJAA-HGJAF error code 15 (Underfrequency)
Engine governor unable to maintain rated frequency. 60 Hz carburetor models: <54 Hz for 30 continuous seconds. EFI models: <54 Hz for 8 continuous seconds (60 Hz sets) or <45 Hz for 8 sec (50 Hz sets).
What to check, and in what order, is in the app. The flow Code 15 - Underfrequency (<54 Hz) walks this code step by step with the pass/fail measurements, wiring schematics and procedures that go with it, and it works offline in the bay.
