Remove lid. There will be two sets of wires coming in-- one from shore power and one from generator.
With everything off/disconnected, verify that all wires are clean and tight.
Start generator and check between black wire (hot) and white wire (neutral) and green wire (ground). Should read 120 VAC. If 50 amp, check between red and white and red and green as well. It also should read 120 VAC.
If you do not have 120 VAC at the ATS with generator running, check the connection where the generator output is wired to the coach wiring.

Thoughts (some or all may not apply):
Is your battery disconnect switch ON ? If it has automatic transfer capability, it might need 12 V for that feature to work.
With my C, the gen outlet is near the shore power cord and the shore power cord must be plugged in there to get power from the gen to the coach. If you have any automatic transfer features, that likely will NOT apply.
Unlike my last rig the shore power does not have to be plugged in, I believe it's auto transfer. and as far as I can see there is no plug near the gen.

If they are on (not tripped), turn them off and back on.
Correct. Off and back on. The "tripped position" is too close to "on". Better to go off and back on.
