8V92 Won't cut off

8V92 Won't cut off
I also have an 88 WB40. I just replaced my transfer switch
(Off/Gen/50/30) switch assy. I was having generator voltage
fluctuations. When I lifted the cover of the switch, to my surprize I
found the switch completly submerged in water. The switch was
completely rusted. I was very surprized that it was still working to
some extent. I was told that some of our 88 WB40 had this problem and
that BB was installing a duck bill check valve in the bottom ogf the
enclosure allowing water to escape without having debris enter. I
purchased a replacement switch from Holland (much cheaper than
BB).Everything is now working well. I would check your coach to see if
this is related to your problem and if not install this check valve to
prevent future problems.
