Agreed.
The reason I was starting it was,…on our previous Itasca Suncruiser I didn’t run the generator over the winter. And, when I finally tried, mice had built a nest around the distributor rotor. When I fired it up the rotor snapped. Had to take the rig to the generator manufacturer for service. $350 later it was all better.
Thought I was being proactive this time? Guess not.
Any idea of a site where I can store pictures without a big $$$? I previously used Photobucket, back when a small account was free. It’s tough to explain what the issue is without an actual picture.
According to the factory schematic, it looks like the wire goes to the voltage regulator.
Stay tuned?
Sorry, just saw bobndot’s post. Yes, this wire was severed at a spade connector. Just need to find the other end.
