Generators
I have a Generac propane generator in my 2003 Lance 1161 truck camper.
It runs fine once it is started
Boatycall analyzed it’s problem for me... some of the external wiring has been corroded as we parked for months along the salt water beaches all around North America
He installed a by-pass rocker switch that lasted several months as we returned home From Seattle area and then part of our later trip to Florida.
Well... we need it for our air conditioning
I think removing the generator from the camper scares many of the people that are capible of doing an overhaul
I dread trying to take the generator out myself as I near 80 years old
Any ideas... please?

On the road, I'm a bit limited in suggestions, at home, there's a mechanical shelf lift we use at work for moving around 500+lb server hardware. Its a dolly and use a crank on it much like a boat winch to lift and lower a steel platform shelf, that you could get and then it would just be a matter of sliding it out of its compartment once its loosened from the rig and onto the crank lift to roll it to a bench for working on.
