Hello
I am new to your Forum.
My friend has an old ELM 3000 generator.
We tried using it today. it is 5-6 years old.
It worked for about 2-3 hours today.
Than it quit sending power to the trailer.
I poked around the control panel and notice that the 120 / 240 switch felt weird, like it was rusted.
i took off the panel and found out that the 120 /240 switch melted.
I tried to jump the wires from the circuit breakers to by pass the switch so we can use the 120V receptecles.
needless to say, we did not have the manual with use and because the toggle switch was melted i did not notice how the wires were attached to the switch.
1) where do i get a new toggle switch
2) how do the 6 wires attach to what part of the toggle switch.
Thank you

PS: the motor still starts on 1 pull
