generator weirdness
Here is the latest on the generator saga. Today I replaced the two
solenoids, diode and breaker. So far - no difference. However, I have a problem with the front solenoid I replaced. It is not engaging when I push the aux switch as the old one did. The ground may not be good, but it started raining and had to quit. Also, if anyone can confirm the large cable layout, on the front solenoid I would feel better. I color coded (tape)the rear solenoid and other components, but since I was lying right under the front one during the exchange, I didn't. When I moved my arm I bumped them. I believe they are right (one red and two yellow curb side) there are two (not much color) to the inside. From Ralph's comments I think maybe the cables in the back are wrong. On the angle metal, holding the diode, there is a bolt (terminal)to the right. There is a large cable with red tape and one with green and the lead going to bottom of diode. The other end of the green cable connects to the far side of the solenoid opposite the feed from the diode and breaker. It appears to me to just be a loop going no place. I mentioned before there was a Rediline when I bought the coach, but I did not mention some of the cables had been cut and others disconnected. There are two solenoids and a host of wires in the bottom of the compartment that probably connected to the Rediline. I will be out of town Saturday and Sunday, but will be able to check messages.
