Generator inside start/stop switch not working on a Royale, or Burchhaven?

[Bob Dunahugh]

My inside switch didn't work for the stop mode. Imagine that happening to me. That inside switch has 6 terminals on the back side. 3 terminals on each side. Move each wire over to the unused 3 terminals. Works perfectly now. I don't know if this is the case for GMC's not done by Coachman. Bob Dunahugh 78 Royale

Any coach using that panel could run into the same issue, inside contacts getting carbonized or as easy as the spade connector corroding just enough.
On my Birchaven it wasn't so easy - wires had several nicks in the insulation and were corroded from the inside. Don't know who thought running bare
wire under the coach was a good idea.

Another common problem is the cable from the coach to the genny. It can get pinched or the connector get corroded.
