Power out
2019 Thor Class C. We have two batteries. After three days the indicator showed only one light. 1/3 full. I tried to start the generator and everything went dark. The generator wouldn’t even crank....
Not sure if this is really a question. You ran the batts dead. Not much help for that other than plugging in or getting a jump on the genset. Although the electronics on the ONan require battery power to keep the circuits running to maintain the fuel solenoid. A half an hour is not much to re-charge completely dead batteries. And deep cycle batteries when run down completely usually are never able to recover fully.
This morning I looked at the batteries and wiggled the cables. I heard a beep as the refrigerator turned on. I tightened up all the wing nuts and everything came to life. I have it plugged in to shore power now. I would like to apply some contact grease between the cable ends for a good connection. What is a good product for that?
Go to your local GM dealership and ask the parts folks.
