Doug's gen problems

[Doug Engel]

Jim,
I worked on a piece of equipment just a few weeks ago that had this same
problem. Turned out the starter soleniod had stuck in the start position. I am
guessing this could be your issue and it is getting power from the coach battery
charging system when you start the coach. I'd remove the starter and have it
checked out, or at least disconnect it and see if the solenoid engagement
terminal should be the small wire, not the heavy battery lead) is hot when you
start the Cat, if not, the solenoid is stuck. Good Luck, Doug

Jim here in MT with my new 8135FCRB. I don't have any answers, I'm
having a very similar gen problem, except I think I might have a switch
stuck in the run position. Even with the gen battery disconnected, when
I have the key to the on position, the gen starter is cranking. Finally
had to get the gen out with the compressor so that I could disconnect
the power to the starter. At least I can start the bird now and get air
to slide the gen out. Any of your solutions may help me, thanks in
advance. Jim
