From my experience it could be the following could cause early onset of jaundice:
1. ABO
2. Rh negative in the mother
3. Birth trauma (forceps/vacum/other)
4. Illness (GBS/other)
5. Induced birth (mostly Pitocin)
Hope this will help (sorry it is so condense, but Im using my son's computer and Im running out of batteries) :-)
