My 4k watt Onan seems to have two ignition coils. One sitting on top of the engine connected to the plugs. One behind the circuit board disconnected.

I can only get the motor to turn over, but not start, by jumping the solenoid to the starter. Jumping various terminals on circuit board does not get it to start or turn over.

I also have no power to the coach interior. But there is power to the Onan.


1973 Canyonlands 230 (23') Odometer reads 37K but probably 137K or 237K Side wet bath/Rear bed/couch Kitchen to the rear of the door inSanity Monica,California
