generator weirdness
Ernie, M.R., Tom, Don and others,
Thanks again. The pictures from M.R. were a "great" help and looks just like my setup. Here is the latest update: According to the layout M.R. posted, I have about 13.6 volts at the diode and circuit breaker without charger and over 14 volts when the charger is on. However, that never makes it to the gen battery unless I push the aux switch. At that time the gen voltage jumps to over 14. The relay for the aux switch is on a vertical wall just to the rear of the front step. But, I cannot see a diode or circuit breaker anywhere near it. I am not sure what to do next. I will check our site off and on through the day. Rain is coming tonight for the next few days, but I should have several hours today. And to Tom, my direct reply to your address came back - not sure why. Thanks again to everyone.
