Lost my saved configurations on my Xantrex 3012, and have been redoing them in the System Control Panel. I am on the auto gen start configurations and there are 15 types to choose from. Does anyone know that "Type" the Onan RV QD 8000 is with respect to Xantrex?

Good afternoon. I will preface by saying we let our RV sit for over 6 months without doing anything to it. My wife had a medical problem and it was the last thing on my mind to go out every month and run the systems. I got her back home and been getting her back in shape again but I am stuck at...

I was one of the lucky ones with the early version of the generator with the rough running issues. Just wanted to update and say thanks to NPS. Got all the parts with instructions. Installed myself and the thing never missed a beat all summer. Almost 100 hours on it now and very happy. While I...

This is very dangerous and a Forrest River needs to address it. We have a 2023 Georgetown GT5. The dinette slide out is right above of the generator. The exhaust points 90 degrees outward toward the edge of the coach but when the slide is out, it puts exhaust right up into the coach...

Anyone have any luck finding a new bendix starter drive for the starter on a 4k Onan genny? My Onan would not turn the engine over. Once disassembled, I found that the nylon gear teeth were chewed up and very sloppy when engaging. Testing the starter, it spins fine but the nylon gear is shot. I...

While boondocking even with 2 2300 running watt generators ran in parallel the ac unit draws too much and the generators are overloaded and shut down. Runs perfectly fine plugged into 30 amp service. Any tips, tricks, or fixes for this?

Just spent 5 nights in American Fork Canyon, Utah. On day 4 my battery charge was down. I hooked up my Honda 2000 generator to charge the battery. Within 2 seconds the generator experienced an Overload alarm and went to idle. I hooked it up to my daughter's trailer and charged that battery...

Hi All, My family boondocks/stays in state parks a great deal in the 28ss Xplorer. The battery goes down to 76% or so overnight, and we run the generator during the allowable couple of hours to get the charge back up. The issue is that the generator only charges the battery bank on “float,”...
