Re: 1987 carver electrical problem
I really don't remember how much they were but maybe 60 bucks each.
Get a card of numbers so you can wrap each wire with a number. Draw what you see.
Number the terminals.
Lotsa wires.
Take a number of pictures.
AND UNPLUG THE SHORE CABLES AND TURN OF THE GENSET.

Take the cover off. Be very careful. Line voltage in there.
Plug both cords in.
Have somebody start the genny. Watch the relays.
Do you know how to use a vom?
Check voltage to the two ac voltage mains.
At the relays, the two incoming cords go to them.
The genset goes to them. Yes, when on genset the two combine automatically.
One of the relays is not letting genset current through.
Or you have a bad connection at the non-air conditioning relay on the genset side.
Agreed
