I do not know what is eating your boards. But AFTER you confirm the board is bad, AND everything else is good, you can get it running again....

Disclaimer: I would not run your Onan unattended with this work-a-round. This work-a-round by-passes the safety features of the board. It will NOT turn off power to the fuel pump and points if the motor stops for some reason other than the off switch. It also removes the low oil protections. Your results may vary and do not blame me! 8o

Find the lower pin 6. (It is normally not used.) Use a crimp on connector to jump it to the pin right next to it. (I am pretty sure it is pin 9.) The Onan should start and run normally. It should even stop when you press "off."
