I got around to playing with the generator all while the onset of Covid #4 despite being vax'ed 4x. Anyway, in my quest for air leak salvation, I decided to do the old tug test. I found this wire loom going into the generator control box was loose. I unscrewed the captive collar, pulled it apart and found the contacts must have been sprayed with some kind of lubricant. Either way, I felt the connections may be a little sloppy. I put it back together and whaddya know, the generator now starts from inside the coach. I did 5 start/stop cycles in a two day period. I figure if I shove the generator back in, the wire might falsify its contact again leading to a never ending frustration. What's a good solution for this? I can't really reach back there without removing the rusted pin holding the Ram to the slide. (I've exhausted being nice to this pin and if removal is needed, a sharp bit will make short work of it.)
On another note, While I am in there, I will replace the little airbags. The air control valve was also leaking so I have a new replacement. (It's not fully installed yet) What setting do I put it on as far as air pressure for the generator air bags? Old gauge is so darkened I cannot read it.
