Can the starter be pulled from the Impact 36 without dropping the generator unit? It is in a 2004 Lance 820.
So far I haven't had to replace the starter, but it's probably not replaceable from inside the compartment. Almost all service work done to a Generac Impact generator requires removal from the camper except for spark plug replacement, an engine oil and filter change, or an air filter replacement.
I've had mine out several times for various repairs and it isn't that difficult, but a bit time consuming. It is removed by lowering from the bottom of the compartment after disconnecting the electrical and the LP gas connections. Lowering the generator from the camper is easier with a helper to steady and guide the generator when lowering it to the shop floor. A hydraulic floor jack is a good tool for this purpose and a transmission jack is even better.
