Sluggish Genset Start from Panel
I notice that our 2004 26Q Tioga's Onan 4000 genset turns over sluggishly lately from the remote panel switch near the sink but turns over much more vigorously from the start switch on the genset itse...

No codes, good genset to ground connection, all house battery connections just cleaned/good, house battery disconnect switch and relay seem good. Will try to get clues from Onan manual and contact Onan if needed. Wish there was an "all you need to know" resource about care, feeding and troubleshooting of typical inter-dependant Class C genset, converter/charger, house and chassis battery setups. I know that I'm not the only RV'er non-engineer that gets bewildered.
I did find somewhat informative You Tube videos about troubleshooting of genset starting problems. I tried starting the genset from the panel today after running for over an hour yesterday, it started, so maybe problem will be mostly alleviated by more frequent running with load.
