Just FYI, I've posted this on another "coach specific" forum and may be able to solve my problem from potential answers form them. I haven't crawled under there yet since I spent the day cleaning up my roof top A/C units. I may be able to look tomorrow so does anyone have ideas on what I should be looking for?
On my "new to me" 2002 Monaco Windsor, the 7500 Onan genset is on a slide in the front. I went out to exercise the genset today and thought I would slide it out, just to see what all kind of stuff is in there. I pressed the genset slide button but nothing happened. I know it has worked in the past. I tested it when I bought it and again once after I got it home. I tried the switch both directions. I can hear the motor running but the slide isn't coming out. Is there anything I need to do before the slide extends? I'm still trying to learn the in's and out's of this motorhome and there is a lot more to it as opposed to my '94 Allegro Bus. BTW and just FYI, I was able to exercise the generator. It cranks up and runs like a charm.
Any help or ideas are appreciated.
Is there a release on it, for manual operation and since you're saying that you can hear the pump running. Hyd. pump should be near by and assuming it has fluid, most likely Dextron III.
Does your passenger side floor work and could be the same pump that is used for it.
I have the pump in the driver's side front bay, but only for the floor and since my genset doesn't slide out. I'd like that, but not sure of potential problems and their history in general.
