Triple digit heat! Generator won't run
We have a real issue! Triple digits, ready to leave for our trip in one day and the generator won't run the a/c. We had unplugged shore power to cool the 2008 Itasca down for some pre-trip honeydo...

First, if you have an ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch) which I suspect you do have, no damage was done by plugging in assuming the ATS was functional.It's job is to only allow ONE source of 120 VAC to the main breaker panel-- either shore or generator.
The generator has two breakers on the generator itself. Turn them off an back ON.
If generator is running (i.e. not out of fuel, etc) exactly what 120 VAC things are working and not working?
The only thing that has trouble running is the a/c. With some fiddling I can get the a/c to run. However, even with the a/c turned off, the generator will start and run for about 10 minutes then it shuts down.
