You should test to see where the loose connection could be.
Need to test 12 volt DC and 120 volt AC systems.
I am still leaning toward an issue with the genset output as it doesn't do it on shore power.
Can't convince anyone that the problem has nothing to do with a loose connection of the gen..
Please READ THIS POST where the OP SOLVED their "flicker" of LEDs (LEDS act faster than a filament)by REPLACING THE CONVERTER.
The LEDS ONLY FLICKERED ON GENERATOR POWER, NOT ON SHORE POWER.
If you REALLY want to test the generator output you should plug in a 120V INCADESCENT LIGHT BULB INTO THE GENERATOR and COMPARE the 120V bulb against the 12V bulb running off the converter. My bet is the 120V bulb won't be "flickering" at the exact time if at all..
