Start by cleaning the small terminals on the battery disconnect relays in the battery control center.
Make sure the large terminals are clean and tight.
You should disconnect your batteries while working in the battery control center.
The genset should not go through the battery disconnect. It should be connected directly to the battery.
Check the ground connection between the batteries and the frame of the rig. There should be a ground jumper between the grounds of the chassis and coach batteries(aux). If there is none I would install one. Everyone will jump in and say it is not necessary, but the grounds between the engine attached ground and the coach ground helps tie the systems securely to gether.
