If we were to get the gen fired up, that should charge the batts. too, right?
Not likely since shore power doesn't. Either one is supposed to provide 120v power to the charger that does the house battery bank.
The gen probably uses the house battery bank as its own battery to start the gen. But those batteries are maybe dead.
Does the engine start and run? If so, the alternator should send 12v power back to the house systems, and that might help with starting the generator.
You might start the gen from jumper cables from the house batts to a car battery if you can park close enough.
If you guys know anybody with a MH, he could help check things out.
