no Electric Power from Onan Marquis 5000 generator

Have a Onan generator and when it is up and running will not provide power to unit even with no shore power connected. What could be the causes
  • If new to you it might need to have the shoreline cord plugged into an outlet in the shoreline cable compartment. This setup does not need a transfer switch.
  • Circuit breaker(s)on generator tripped
    Automatic transfer switch stuck on shore power side (no ATS..have to plug gen cord into receptacle)
    Main AC Dist. Panel Breaker tripped
  • Look for a circuit breaker that needs to be reset outside right on the generator itself.
