Hey Everyone, Thanks for the replies.... I checked my pump output, nothing, checked the filter -clean and ready- Checked the voltage going to the pump, -solid 12VDC- and yes, even made sure there was fuel in the tank.... :D Why isn't it getting fuel to run?..... I got the air hose to make sure...

Thanks for the great pics.... Here's a little of my challenge last fall. It took four of us to mount the door but I got mine at the factory, drove it home, made a bigger hinge support bracket.... although, like the hydraulic lift arm mod you made. Work nice? I hope the four pictures show the...

Hello Fellow Generator Owners, 5500 Marques Gold Unit The unit started last week and ran just fine for about 15 minutes to make sure it made the winter storage. Ran great, no problems.. until I tried to make sure it ran again this week and test it out to exercise it. Unit started, ran about 5...

Hello Fellow Ramp Door Failure Partners, My wife and I purchased a used 2009 Cyclone 3912 3 years ago. What a learning curve you have on how these things are made and what to look out for. Landing gear, failed and replaced, slide floors, rotted, failed and replaced, Sink faucet, two failed and...

I'm leaning that way but the idea of having installed the surge protector, even though I don't believe it has anything to do with my problem, has me a little concerned since it all meets in the ATS. I'll try turning off the AC main panel and see if it has any merit to checking the breakers...

And... Why in the **** did I post this in the plumbing/propane area?.... Can you tell I'm frustrated?..

That's correct, removed the shore power from the ATS, cut off enough to splice in the surge guard, wired out of the surge guard back to the same spots on the ATS..... never removed the generator cables or cable to AC panel. I looked at the ATS when the shore power was removed, generator...

Thanks for the ideas... and yep, I've got the camper unplugged while working on it. Another bit of information and the transfer switch information... I added a progressive surge guard before the last time I ran the generator... never gave that a thought, black to black, white to white, red to...

Good idea on the AC circuits... The two breakers that I switched were the ones located on the generator control panel .. none of the breakers in the ac panel, but that's a good idea. I just thought that the problem was in the generator circuit before it left to go to the ac panel... I'll give...

Hello Campers, Here's my situation... Generator starts and runs just fine with both 30 amp breaters turned off. Generator runs fine when I trip the top breaker, I have 120 volts at the outlets, the transfer switch lights up, life is good. When I turn the bottom breaker on, the generator shuts...

...lol.... I know, it's my nature to try and fix the **** thing and kick the dead horse one more time until I'm fully satisfied that I can't fix it.... but from the sounds of it, I'll be doing exactly what you suggested and getting something different.... another thing to put on the wish list...

Mine is the Jensen JDV8035 unit as well and is doing the exact same thing..... Thanks for the tips, I'll hit the reset button and check on the belt inside on the right side.... can't hurt, anything is better than nothing right now Rick

Dug into the back of the Jensen unit last night to check why the TV isn't piped into the big speakers.... It's because there isn't enough input jacks in the back of the Jensen to accommodate the TV. It has one output for Video and a pair of output for the speakers, (left and Right) which go to...

Ahh.... Perfect, another thing to cross off the list of things to know! Thanks, Rick

Another question for the experienced RV people..... unlike myself... On the control panel of my Cyclone, there's a "Test" switch, when pressed, it shows the tank levels, water heater, etc. etc. Above the battery section, on the right side of the control panel, 4 LED's light up..... C G F L...
