Re: Onan does not start
John Clark
Hi Paul, I instinctively say it is the DC circuit breaker, the red switch on the Generator panel in the ER. I see it looks to be on, try cycling it. My switch can be bumped when doing work in the ER and look like it is still on. I am not 100% sure about the solenoid that connects the DC negative, if that also connects the generator control power to the neg terminal. If so that could be the issue as well...in that scenario the solenoid would first close then allow everything else to fire up. I'll be back on the boat this afternoon and can double check.
