generator

This post doesn't directly relate to my camper, but I brought out my generator yesterday to exercise it and so I could run the AC in the camper while I do some work inside. Long story short, didn't work out. I know lots of folks here have small engine experience so I'm asking for advice, because...

Hi all so sort of new to the travel trailer scene we bought a 2020 grey wolf black label last fall, it was basically brand new we have only used it once so far but everything work, well we were boondocking with a harvest host and just ran what we needed of the battery for the night But it was...

Can I run the generator and have the solar controller connected to the battery at the same time. My sense is the controller and the DC charging system would be in parallel and fight each other? Do I risk damaging one or the other? It would be a pain to disconnect the controller every time I...

Good morning, We are picking up our Keystone Passport 239ml(30A / one air conditioner) in a week. We will be boondocking in July. Can you please make a generator size recommendation for this? I found this Firman at costco and it seems to check all the boxes. Thoughts??? Here are our...

I have an Onan 4000 generator in my used FR Sunseeker. I had it serviced about a year and it has run fine. Today I tried to start it and all I got was a whirring sound, but no attempt to start. Anyone have any idea what the problem could be? wschneid

I have a 2023 Winnebago adventure, with a 5500 generator. Is it true, the generator will always supply 110 voltage to one leg of electric power? I’m trying to Termine if I have a problem with my electrical settings, or whether I will only get 110 V to one leg of my power supply

Hi All, Saturday night I was laying in bed when I smelled electrical smoke, shortly thereafter I saw arching and lost power. I ran out and disconnected from shore power, and am OK running on Generator now, though I don’t want to do for too much longer, as the picture shows I am not comfortable...

Hey all, I hope there may be people on here smarter than I am on electrical stuff... I have a Honda EU2200I genny. On the generator it states the outlets are "floating ground". When I plug in my Surge Protector I get the 'Open Ground" light but once I plug in the trailer the lights change to...

So I am getting a code 3 6 on my 2015 Itasca. Genny starts then surges about 30 seconds and when microwave lites up, the genny stalls. Thinking to check the ground, but not sure if every step needs inspection?, or if just the battery and genset are the usual culprits?

I have a 2017 Forester 3011 DS. THE generator runs but it's not powering anything. I reset the breaker and it is not powering anything. Any ideas?

Anyone installed a cold air intake and headers on their generator? Looking for some gains.....:roflblack:

I just bought a slightly-used 2023 Tellaro 20J, which has the standard 200ah Lithium battery package and an "under-the-hood generator" alternator. Unfortunately, I live in a desert... having a real generator will quickly become mandatory over the summer months. Looking at the diagrams for a...

Hi! I just bought a 2020 Minnie Winnie 22M and thought it unusual that I had to physically disconnect the power cord from the generator in order to plug into shore power, and vice versa. My old RV handled that automatically without having to physically change connections. Is there an easy way...

I am looking for suggestions. I currently use a Westinghouse iGen4500DF Inverter Generator that I haul on a rear mounted cargo carrier to power my Flagstaff 25fks. I am trying to find something to cover the generator during travel to protect it from the elements. Any suggestions?

My Trovato has a Onan qg2800i generator and after doing maintance I started it up and saw no elect power to anything. Unit is unplugged from shore power. Checked breakers inside coach and all ok. What happened Any help is welcomed. Thanks

Good morning, have 2015 Legacy, what generator do I have? 6k. I need fuel filter but don't have a number on the filter itself. Any help would be great, at parts house now

So, our AC stopped working while the generator was running. 1) AC works when on shore power 2) new transfer switch installed 3) furnace and fan work on generator 4) feed out of transfer switch shows 120 volts on both shore power and generator Any thoughts appreciated

Hello, Just got our new rig and looking over everything and trying to learn as much as I can about the rig. So far, we love it. Just a quick question on the generator fuel feed. I believed that the generator pickup is on the driver's side at about 1/4 tank. However, I couldn't find it when...

We have a brand new Era. Ran the gennie the day we brought it home to test it out. Cannot start it now. Propane is full. Propane is open. Rig on level ground. Where should we start looking? Thank you.

Recently purchased a 2021 dynamax dx3 37ts. When I run the generator without shore power it will only run for 10 minutes and shutoff. Wondering if there is something in the ags profile that is doing this. Any help would be awesome

Hello all. My wife heather and I are new to the RV world. Both of us are excited. looking for some recommendations on small generators for our Minnie flx. any suggestions would be great and appreciated. Heather and I love the outdoors. both "foodies" we can't wait to travel to great eats...

This is a perplexing problem. 2020 GD Momentum with an Onan 5500 gas generator. When I purchased the rig a month ago the generator ran fine. Then interment starting problems came along. After priming, and pressing start the starter would engage on about every 6th try. The problem continued...

We're considering the addition of a solar generator and solar panels for the RV AND as a backup power source for the house. Has anyone purchased the same and what kind of units did you go with? Thanks in advance

2018 DX3, onan generator shuts down after about 5-10 mins. Code is code 33 (And yes there is a code 33 on the water cooled units, this is a secondary code). I got the generator unbolted and about out of the coach. Going to check the resistance on the temp sensor, as I hear its a common...

Hi all, I'm contemplating putting a permanently mounted generator in the forward bay of our 382flrb. It is pre-wired for this option from the factory so I'm not stuck with struggling with that at least! I'm interested in what Mfg and models some of you might have installed. Thanks in advance!
