Some follow up to this that may help someone in the future.
The 2 large wires (2gauge) are to the generator! I had a bad transfer relay and no good way to change it out so I haven't tried the generator again until today. My water heater died an awful death over the winter. My bad, messed up with the winterization. So with a large hole in the side of the camper I now have access. Time to fire up the generator and test the relay..... OK start now.... not a sound. I hooked the 2 large wires to a jump pack and voila! Generator sounds. OK so the gas is off because the water heater is unhooked. For $78.00 from Amazon delivered tomorrow I will soon have a new transfer relay.
