Transfer switch location???
Bought a used 2010 Jamboree Sport 28Y with only 14k on the odometer after having a 2002 Shasta Sprite & decided we needed a little more room. Really like the rig, but am having a generator problem in ...

It is idiot simple and relatively foolproof. Just remember to plug in the cord EVERY time you stow it in the compartment.
Also, the circuit breaker on the generator is very difficult to spot, it is mounted down low, just forward and "around the corner" from the start switch on the generator. It is virtually out of sight. It also takes virtually no effort to trip it. A good hard bump in the road will probably be enough to make it flip off.
I added a bunch of labels made with my Brother label maker, one on the outlet stating it is the generator power outlet, another stating to check the breaker on the generator if the outlet is dead, another on the generator access door stating that a circuit breaker is located inside, another label inside pointing to the breaker, and lastly, one just above it showing which way is off and on, as it takes a keen eye and a bright light to read the slightly raised OFF lettering on the breaker.
The older I get, the more I tend to label stuff. It may be apparent now, but I might forget next week, and no use making the next guy suffer.
