Generator turned itself on!
I am stumped as to why my Onan 7500 diesel generator in my Damon Tuscany motor coach came on during a recent storm. The coach was plugged into a 50 amp AC power box equipped with a surge protector. ...

Happened to me on a rainy night. The connector on my coach was on the passenger side of the generator. A multiple pin flat connector. As suggested by previous posters, disconnect connector, add dielectric grease and reconnect.
This fixed my generator but when I left the motor home for several days I turned off the house batteries just to make sure the problem didn't return while I was away. I was going to put a disconnect switch on the generator battery supply but never got around to it before I sold the unit.
I called Onan and they acted as if they never heard of it happening yet there were lots of posts on the RV forums about this problem.
