Gene; We own a 211 not a 213. I'm new to this on line posts. Didn't get a PC until 2002. I need to proof before I hit send. The emergency start switch on my rig is on the dash. (I didn't know what it was until I started reading this B+ thread.) The generator switch is on the wall next to the sink with the pump and heater switches, tank heater switch and the LED tank level indicators. I plan to check all the wiring to the solenoid on the generator, probably have a loose or corroded wire. Coach battery was dry when we got it and may have been original. Generator had 6.5 hours. Without the original owner to ask ( we bought it off his widow), I'm just taking my time learning this rig. It's so much more complicated than my 1977 G-30 Santana CVC. Reading all these posts has explained a lot, plus I was a navy electronic tech years ago and AC/DC is still the same. It's also great to know that over seventy other families have the same type product and are connected on this site.
