Having some electrical issues with my Momentum G28 Travel Trailer. While on shore power, everything runs fine. While on Generator it seems my desktop trips the Nearest GFCI "behind the tv". I've unplugged everything and checked each outlet with a heater that uses about 10 or 11 amps. didn't have...
When I press the "prime" switch, the electric fuel pump runs and never stops.
Are the fuel pumps supposed to stop when enough pressure builds up?
Is this the reason that the generator won't start?
TYA,

OK, got a weird one for you. Doing a periodic genny run, and they say to run the genny and apply power. Did so. NO POWER. The genny is running, so I check the owner's manual which says to reset the genny breaker. Took me a while, but I found the breaker. No problem. Did a 'test - reset'...
Hi all , just got a 23 xlr28dk5 and have a hard time filling the gas tank , looked under the trailer and looks like the filler and the place the hose goes into the tank are the same height . Any one else have this problem ? Short of drilling a hole in the side of the trailer and moving it up...
I want to add a generator to my 41' Alpine 3851rd. I have been looking at the Westinghouse WGen9500DF. It has12,500 peak watts and 9,500 running watts. Should this be able to operate my refrigerator, air-fryer, water heater and an ac or two?
I've used my Motorhome 4 times so far this year, I rarely use my generator though. I'm just wondering if there is mileage number that I need to keep track of?? Like cars are every 8k-10k miles between oil changes........
TIA
Hey all,
We just purchased a 2023 Georgetown GT7 36D7 Class A with a 7000 watt Onan generator. We live in Florida and are new RVers.
This past weekend we were trying to run both AC units, fridge, water heater, water pump and normal "gameday" appliances like the TVs while in Gainesville...
I soon will be the owner of a 2013 Jayco Greyhawk 31 DS coach. If all goes well it should be in my yard either this week or next. I had the coach professionally inspected and only two issues were found
1. Drivers and Passenger seats are worn (the surface finish has been flaking off).
2. The...
I have a 2014 Vista with a Cummins Genset that runs off the gas tank - Can I add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank and then run the genset to get the treatment into the Carb of the Generator ? Never had one before but I know Gas ruins Carbs easily
My generator fuel line has an air leak at the connection on top of the tank. The connecting nipple is loose. I need to drop the tank to repair or replace the generator fuel line connection. I don't see how to disconnect the fuel inlet and vent hoses without first lowering the tank, but I don't...
I have an Onan QD 8000 diesel generator that has no power to the start switches. Batteries are good and I have power to the connection on back of the generator. Any ideas what to check next? I'm also having an issue removing the right side of the front panel if there is a trick to this, I would...
Hi folks
We just purchased a 2023 Rockwood 2606WS and I upgraded the battery to a 200aH Li-Time lithium battery. In the manual it states that a special charger may be needed to charge the battery from a generator. The Rockwood has a WFCO converter which I believe is compatible with lithium...
Could someone help me out. I know my 5th wheel uses a 5.5kw LP generator by Onan. What I don’t know is the exact model number or amperage req (30amp/20amp or 30amp/30amp). My RV repair shop near me say they can’t help and I’ve tried Jayce w/no response.
It came prepared for the generator.
Just some general information about trying to run my 2019 Dometic 1500 BTU AC and what happened and worked for me.
What started this was my AC would run fine on 30 amp service but would trip immediately when trying to run on a 20 amp breaker which I know is too small for the AC but all previous...
This is my second trip in my 2023 Isata 5. First trip was great and on 50 amp shore power. We are boondocking this trip and this thing has lost its mind. I am running the generator and it will run for 30 minutes or so and then either die or just kill power and then reset. About half the time it...
This is my first Toy Hauler and I was trying to run a test on using the 5500 Onan generator. The generator starts up perfectly but it is not suppling power to the rig. No AC Units would turn on and only the investors sockets running of the batteries would work. Is there a switch that I am...
I have always used the remote start on the one source for my 4000 Conan generator and it has always worked well and it still does. But I went to change oil in it for the first time and tried to start it manually it will start right up but then shuts off. What am I missing is there something that...
My travel trailer has 2 AC units and they work fine at the beginning when I have it connected to the 50amp plug of the generator. However, after 15 min or so, the AC units shut off even though the generator is on. The rest of the appliances continue working. I have even tried using only one AC...

Will the generator start up without house batteries from the engine battery and should I try starting it up while the engine is running ?
Our rig has been sitting in storage (outside since '20). Occasionally we would start the generator as well as the engine during that time...
So I know nothing about RVs, but in my divorce settlement, I got stuck with this RV. I am trying to purchase the best generator for it. I know that it is a 50 amp RV but I don’t plan to run everything all at once. I’m looking for a decent generator but cheap. One that’s not crazy loud but will...

I recently picked up a Firman WH03242 4000W generator with 30amp socket. I'm also using a Power Watchdog EPO surge protector that keeps showing an E7 error which means it's not grounded. I purchased a bonded plug and that didn't seem to get rid of the error.
My question is are there...
DC to DC charging and solar adding charge to batteries, started generator and no power went to batteries, but generator running fine. Looked at breakers, none tripped. Flipped breaker at main panel, flipped breaker on generator, unplugged and plugged shore cord back into its plug, no luck. Had...
