No power when the generator is running
We have a 1999 Bounder and everything works great . But when we run the generator the lights or anything else won't work. I've checked the owners manual and can't find anything about a switch or anyth...

There are probably two circuit breakers on the generator body. As mentioned above, someone may have hit the 12v isolation switch, often located by the entry door where it can be easily thrown in error. It is also possible (I learned from experience) that an error shorting out the battery while cleaning up could have blown the two 20 or 30amp fuses located on the inverter. In that MH the inverter was located under the kitchen cabinet way in back partially covered by the frig. Changing the fuses required laying down, squinting a bunch, and using a long needle-nose plier, but I got the job done.
Also, it is possible that your generator is plugged into the motorhome, not completely hard wired, in that case the plug may have come loose. Also in some motorhomes, rather than a transfer switch you must plug the generator into the motorhome, or plug shore power into the motorhome (haven't seen that for a while). Good Luck.
