The Onan has always been a little cranky. Push the putton, sometimes works, sometimes just a whirring sound. But it always started after a few pushes of the button.

Not anymore

The starter motor is activating. I hear either a whirring sound or a screeching sound.

Maybe a bad "bendix"?

I did some research and see that broken brackets have been an issue. With the drawer open the starter looked to be in the normal position. I am not sure what else to look for.

Thoughts and suggestions alays appreciated.

(ps - still havn't figured out whats wrong with the frig.)

Thanks
