Hello,
I am a new rv owner and like what I see on your forum.Good stuff.
I have a 84 26' Southwind motorhome.
The question,the generator stopped running(no spark). Ran fine and the next time would not start,cranked and have gas
The points are making and braking,i have 12 volts to the coil but no spark. I have read if there is nothing coming from the gen or no oil psi that will not start.
The only problem I see is the slip rings are black and i will measure but bet the brushes are worn.
Is there a way to clean the rings in the chassis? I will replace the brushes but make no sense to do so if the rings are less then clean.
The unit has 800 hours on it.
Even if the out put is not the problem they still need to be serviced..
I was a power boat tech for 24 years so I am familiar with most of the systems.
Thank you for any help.
