Hi Ralph - is the switch integrated with the handle? There is a drip/noise panel under the rails that I'd have to remove to access the handle mechanism. I tried pushing the "in" switch and the pump actuated for a moment, so I'm guessing it's the cut off switch. Have repeatedly tried to push the handle all the way open. It seems to operate without any impediment so I think the switch is damaged or failed. Your thoughts and suggestions very much appreciated!
Thanks
Greg

Do you have the front lock handle on your gen set? There is a cut out
switch if the lock is not all the way open.

Yes, the switch is actuated by an extension of the locking mechanism. If
the lock is fully in the retracted position, then you can crawl under the
drivers side of the Coach and with a pair of pliers, remove the cotter pin
from the pivot pin that attaches the cylinder to the gen set tray proper.
Then slide the tray out by hand and effect repairs to the lockout switch or
wiring then re connect the cylinder remembering to replace the cotter pin
in place. Or, locate the print that shows the lock out wiring, find the
ending point and jumper that junction to tell the system the lock is
actuated. But to be honest the fastest way is to remove the clevis pin.
