generator

So, this 36Z is new and we’ve owned it for about 3 weeks and it only has the delivery miles on it. We were loading it up today and had the generator running for about an hour to two hours and it died. The camper has about 3/4 tank of fuel so there is enough fuel. I don’t know why it died so I’m...

Good Day all, So my generator in my 2020 415 has been acting up since I picked up the unit. I have to have 13v available for it to start for example. Getting past that, all of a sudden it will only run 5 minutes and quit. Then if I try to restart it, it sounds more like the starter is...

I have a 2024 raptor carbon Toy Hauler fifth wheel. Everything works fine when I run my on board Generator (5500 Onan). When I plug my trailer in to my 3000 W champion generator my electrical panel starts making a high-pitched ringing noise. If I shut the breaker off to the converter, it goes...

Hello all. I cannot figure this out. I tested everything electrical based on champions instructions with my multimeter and everything is coming up perfectly fine. I'm getting 120v. It ran fine for a long time. Till it didn't. It keeps shutting off randomly as soon as I plug in anything...

2019 Minnie Winnie 22R, 4000W Onan Generator. I'm scheduled to get some electrical systems work done to allow off grid camping. It includes 2 each 270 amp-hour Battle Born Lithium batteries to replace the 2 each 100 amp-hour wet cell batteries. I recently came across some comments on other...

Has anyone had an issue with the generator essentially having no power? Won't prime, won't start. If i open the front panel the switch has no light. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I had to move my motorhome to storage without electric. First time in 8 years the motorhome was not plugged in. The other day I went to start the generator and it started. I moved from storage and was showing it to someone interested in buying it and the the generator would not start. The...

Had this problem and looked at several RV sites for an answer. Found several suggestions, tried them all and was getting ready to purchase a new carburetor. My neighbor an old school auto mechanic said "sounds like loose bolts holding the carburetor". Tightened the bolts and guess what, runs...

Did some reading but didn't find what I was looking for. Has anyone made the transition from lead acid batteries to lithium with a generator. My understanding is that the Lithium doesn't have the CCA's to turn over a generator. So I'm thinking of maintaining a single lead acid and 2 100 ah...

Sunstar with a 5Kw Onan generator. After sitting for 2 months not being used generator would start but only run for a short time. Tried new filter, carb cleaner nothing worked. Noticed only a drip from the gas tank line when I removed it from old filter. I blew into the gas line and gas flowed...

Lost my saved configurations on my Xantrex 3012, and have been redoing them in the System Control Panel. I am on the auto gen start configurations and there are 15 types to choose from. Does anyone know that "Type" the Onan RV QD 8000 is with respect to Xantrex?

Good afternoon. I will preface by saying we let our RV sit for over 6 months without doing anything to it. My wife had a medical problem and it was the last thing on my mind to go out every month and run the systems. I got her back home and been getting her back in shape again but I am stuck at...

how much to you pay for a tuneup on an onboard Onan 4,000 generator ? thanks

Hey everyone, we will be doing some boondocking for the first time this week at deer camp. I will be taking an inverter generator to run as needed and keep the battery topped off. I have a question about when to run the generator. My Wolf Pup has a voltage meter in one of the kitchen cabinets...

Hi folks, I am new to this forum and would like some help with a battery charging issue. I was boondocking with my 22 Rockwood Minilite 2109S and after a few days wanted to charge up my Li time 230 amp hour lithium battery. I hooked up my Genmax 4800 generator to the 30 amp cord and the...

Just had brand new generator installed. The Operator Manual gives a list of other documentation that I should have access to, and in fact, clearly states that the owner should review before operating the generator. Sure, no one really does that -- but I want to have it all on hand for future...

Generator fuel gauge is reading empty when it is full of gas. Where is the fuel gauge located on a 2022 Fuzion 379? Which fuse is to the fuel gauge for the generator? Will the generator run if the gauge is reading empty?

I was one of the lucky ones with the early version of the generator with the rough running issues. Just wanted to update and say thanks to NPS. Got all the parts with instructions. Installed myself and the thing never missed a beat all summer. Almost 100 hours on it now and very happy. While I...

Today AGS turned on the generator to charge the batteries, and while charging, it stopped every few minutes and then resumed. The generator turned off at 13.6v when it was set to 14.5v. I’ve never used AGS before, but when the generator turned off, AGS also disabled. Also yesterday, I turned on...

This is very dangerous and a Forrest River needs to address it. We have a 2023 Georgetown GT5. The dinette slide out is right above of the generator. The exhaust points 90 degrees outward toward the edge of the coach but when the slide is out, it puts exhaust right up into the coach...

Does anyone know if WBGO design coaches so that the generator will shut off automatically at 1/4 tank full? I have a 2019 29ve. I have never had my generator cutoff below 1/4 tank, but I hear about this all the time. It is very rare I am under 1/4 tank and if I were I may not have needed my...

Every time I have to connect or disconnect to campsite power, I get frustrated with the way things are in our Minnie Winnie 31K. Small area, have to go thru hole with wire. I have been thinking about modifying to allow automatic switch between generator and campsite power. My first question...

I'm getting a low oil pressure error code on my genset. If the v8 is running, the Onan starts but shuts down and shows the low oil pressure error. It has very low hours, full oil and has been started and tested regularly until August when our world was upended. Also getting the dreaded 36 error...

Anyone have any luck finding a new bendix starter drive for the starter on a 4k Onan genny? My Onan would not turn the engine over. Once disassembled, I found that the nylon gear teeth were chewed up and very sloppy when engaging. Testing the starter, it spins fine but the nylon gear is shot. I...

I have a 2022 Jay Flight SLX 8 242BHSW Rocky Mountain Edition that came with a propane quick connection back by the outdoor kitchen. I've purchased a Westinghouse iGen4500DFc generator for when I'm boon docking. The generator came with a two stage regulator that screws directly into a 20lb...
