Battery Isolator location
That might be why I can't find one. I don't think the battery for the
generator is being charged so perhaps there is a soleniod not
working. I need to get that fixed so that I can put the bus into my
storage spot. I am concerned that I will have starting problems and I
want to be certain that I can start the generator so that if needed I
can charge the house and engine start batteries (which on my coach
are one in the same). I want to but the bus under cover but I am
afraid to move it way from 110 until I am confident that it will
start. Any more information would be appreciated.
