We previously posted that our generator in our recently purchased GMC would run but would not produce power in the coach .
 
The RV shop that told us we needed a new board & said that it is not wired correctly.
 
Before we purchased it, the wires had been chewed.  Someeone worked on the wires but did not do it correctly.  They bypassed the board & wired straight to starter so that the generator would start.  It runs great & sounds great.  Too bad it doesn't do itsob.  
 
It is not wired to the F1, F2 & brushes, according to the RV guy.  He said until it is wired correctly, it can't produce power .No matter what we do.
 .
Tom, you had asked these questions:
 
Did it produce power?  Not since we had it.
Does motor run?  Yes because the board is by passed & wired direct to the starter.
Was it running, producing power under load & then quit making power? Never produced power since we have owned it.
 
Tomorrow the dash air is being checked at an auto shop. Hopefully, that can be repaired.
 
Tom, when I express my concern of traveling to Branson without AC, you said to remember when I was a little girl with no AC.  That’s been so long that I can’t remember & besides I didn’t know any better.
