Using my generator in afternoon and evening to run AC this last trip to Texas. Everything was fine until last noon stop before home and unit failed to start. Checking the batt voltage and starting relay at unit has 13 vdc in but when energized voltage is pulled down to about 7.5vdc and...

On our 2022 Georgetown GT36K7 The Onan 7000 Generator ran fine to weeks ago, now will not Start. Checked oil (Full) Fuel Tank Full. Replaced Spark Plugs Replaced Fuel Filter. I removed the Fuel Pump and hit the prime button. Could the issue be the Fuel pump? and why is the fuel pump so...

Hello! We've been traveling regularly in our 2023 Raptor 429 since December. Most of the time we are hooked up to shore power. When on shore power our electrical systems work great. Over the last week we've been boondocking and running the generator to power heater, AC, microwave, and charge...

I have a 2023 Forester Classic 2441DSF with a Onan QN4000 generator that will not stay running. It shuts down all by its self at different intervals. Sometimes it will run for an hour and I shut it down myself with no issues, other times it will run 15 minutes, 30 minutes or just 5 minutes. Does...

We recently purchased a 2013 Forest River Berkshire 360QL and are not sure how to run everything. If you are dry camping and start the generator, what is the procedure to get all the outlets, Microwave, AC units etc to work? I'm also curious how to reset the date and time listed on the dash...

Hi. I'm one of those people who tries to fix things themselves to the point I obsess over it until I get the job done right(OCD?). Unfortunately that is going to make for a bit of a long post here. If you know me from other posts, you are probably aware that I use my gas generator(Onan EVAP...

Do any of the FR Class C motorhomes have auto generator start? If the power goes out and we have the dog in the MH we want the genset to start to keep the MH cool. Some of the Jayco/Entegra units have this feature. Thanks

Hello, I have a 2013 Sunseeker with a “error” showing on the display inside the RV for the generator. The generator will run when cold, if the motor of the RV is running. If I turn it off after about 10 min. It will not start again. But it will not start with the batteries. Batteries are good...

Okay, I’d originally crafted together this post to seek the guidance & assistance of my fellow MBS owners regarding a curious problem we suddenly started having with the Cummins Onan QG 3600 LP propane generator on our 2018 Sunseeker 2400W (Mercedes Sprinter Chassis). It’s always been super...

My other potentially dumb question for the day: I have been told that a generator with a "clogged" carburetor won't start up at all. Is there a difference between a "gummed up" carburetor and a "clogged" one -- as in one will start, run, then stall; while the other won't start up at all? Or...

I have what might be dumb question, related to my other thread -- We're still working our way through various troubleshooting steps. I have seen nothing in any manuals or anywhere really stating that these generators must have a load on them to operate. So....will generators simply shut down...

Does anyone have a location or drawing for the A/C source power selector switch? Our rig is a 98 Gulfstream SunSport with a 30amp shore power connection and Generator. Traditionally, with the old Coleman Mach A/C units, one had to run the generator for both front and back A/C units to be used...

I have a FR Forester 2012...can someone please tell me which battery (chassis or coach) is used to start the generator.

Camped for the first time this season about 2 weeks ago. used an extension cord plugged into the garage (15a) for a couple of days prior to cool the fridge and then used shore power at the campground (50a) for the 3 days we were there...all was well RV has sat since then until tonight...

Power from battery. Power at fuse box under hood. No power at generator. Gas is practically full but the generator has no light and doesn't even attempt to do anything when trying to start it. Also the breaker on the generator is on on position. It's an Onan 4000

Hello, I may not be posting in the correct category but here goes... I have a 2024 Forester 2401B. My air conditioner will not come on while running the generator. I have read previous older threads about the problem and have the following circumstances. 1. Air cond does work when hooked to...

Hi. We have a 2004 sunseeker motorhome. When we run the generator for a bit and turn it off then try to start the engine, it won't start for a few tries. What might be the issue

Just got a 2021 dynamax 37ts and for some reason when I start the generator and turn the air on the generator only runs for a short time. Have full tank of fuel. Also does anyone know if I can put small amount of bleach in water system to sanitize will it hurt the aqua hot system.

I have a 50A rv and the first thing i did was added a Hughes serve protector (PWD50-EPO-H love the thing). It works great on pedistal power. I recently bought a Champion generator Model #201273 5500W Electric Start but it only has a 30 amp outlet. Using a dogbone to connect my rv to it the...

We just bought a preowned 2021 2401b mbs. We were trying to figure out how to find and read the generator hours on it. The salesman said he and the mechanic looked everywhere and could not find it. He asked the previous owner and he did not know either. The salesman said it must not have a...

We have a rockwood 2614BS 50amp unit and need an invertor generator for 1-2 weekends a season, looking at a Honda or Yamaha (want a quiet one) need some HONEST advice on size ? I’ve heard I need at least a 3000 but also heard a 2200 will be fine. Need it to at least run AC Trailer has solar and...

2nd day of boondocking and I was ready to brew my morning java. I turned on the Onan QG4000 and waited a minute or two then went to turn on my coffee brewer....hmm nothing happened. The machine would not turn on. I grabbed my rice cooker and pushed the keep warm button and it won't turn on...

Thanks to all who replied to my previous post. Looks like I have lots of great info and some homework to do. Thanks all much. Great data base out there.

I am looking for a small generator for those times when boondocking is the only option. No big current demands just enough to recharge battery and run the lights etc. I don't have solar and just 1 battery. Brands etc. Coachman Clipper 17fq. Thanks

Hello Everyone. I have a 2005 Dynmax Isata 280SL. The generator was serviced, turns over, but will not start. Is there a gas shut off valve on this model? Thank you so much. My friend came over to help and said he could not smell any gas at all.
