Question

I have a 2001 damon motorhome with a onan 6300 LP GEN SET. It has 78hrs on the hr meter. The gen set has worked very well till I tried to start it this morning. The gen set would only roll over but would not sart. I took the white wire that feeds 12 volts to the solenoid switch for the LP and run a wire direct to this switch. Now the unit started no problem. Not having a volt meter to check the voltage I only had use of a 12 volt test light and it appears the voltage is low on the white wire coming out of the gen set, any help would be greatly appreciated. My email is XXXXX@XXXXXX.XXX     Thanks for now DAVE wILL IN Palmerston Ont Canada

Ok, does this unit have a little black (Bosch type) relay mounted on the air horn? It would be located on the black box where the air filter is, behind the choke.

Ok that relay feeds that solenoid. 2 of those wires are are for the coil of the relay, 85 and 86. The other 2 is 30 and 87. 30 is the common and 87 (2 wires) goes to the choke and fuel solenoid. You might disconnect the choke and see what happens. If you can get your hands on a DCVolt meter it would help.
