I'm pretty sure that rig came with the Onan 5500 generator. Also came with two tanks from the literature I found, 30 & 18 Gallons. Here are a few thoughts.
On the Onan itself open the cover in the upper left corner possibly under a bundle of wires there should be two breakers, make sure both are ON.
I don't know if the RV has a transfer switch, which would auto transfer between generator or the plug in. If not then the plug will have a place on the RV, usually in the same bay as the cord that it plugs into. Inside the RV there might be a switch that toggles between Generator and Power Cord as well.
Does anything else work when the generator is running?
What exactly is happening with the generator is on and you try to run the AC? Does the AC run when you plug it into the house?
