Generator no start
#48

I did try that to no avail. While digging into this further once my mood cleared up, I believe the issue is the circuit for the generator hour meter. It shares the same power for the solenoid coil. The hour meter has about 600 miles less time on it over the one in the coach which I believe to be accurate. Also the wire for the rack solenoid has markings on it that say hour meter. Unfortunately, I can't reach the wiring in the generator head without pulling the whole thing out and I am not comfortable doing that without a forklift capable of that weight. Aside from that, it is all assembled back together. I already ran a heavy gauge wire through the interior down the pilar and into the bay all while encasing it in protective loom and strapped to look factory. A separate switch using the same circuit that does have constant power will be used to energize the rack solenoid. Even if I try to shut down the engine with the factory switch, it will not do so unless I turn off the power to the rack solenoid. All in all a forgetful situation that should not go wrong. The only downside is not being able to use the other switch locations unless I flip the main solenoid power switch up front. It's ok since I only use the drivers side generator switch mainly since the transfer switch is there too. it's the best I could do and will suffice for my needs. Might incorporate an auto start/stop wireless system to charge the lithium bank when they reach a low percentage in the future.
