You bet I will.. LOL... but first I want to thank you ALL for your input and help getting these problems fixed... All is working now... I first was not able to get power to my cabin, even though I ran the generator, but that turned out to be a user error on my part. I didn't have the power line plugged into the power receptacle that is in the power cord compartment. It must be plugged into that socket in my unit to use generator power rather than land line power..
Second, in my unit, you MUST have at least 1/2 tank full of gas to run the generator. In some you only need a 1/4 tank of gas, but in mine you need 1/2 tank to run the generator. I like that since you will not get stranded in the boondocks because you didn't have enough gas to make it into town for refill your tank.
So, everything is working as hoped and again if it wasn't for this amazingly friendly, helpful site, I would be lost in RV space. Thank you all so much for being here and helping RV newbies like me fix stupid user errors. LOL
Wishing everyone Happy RVing.
