I need some help please. I’ve been dry camping for several days and 12V and solar is running fine. Just now I started the generator in order to run the microwave and it started and ran fine. While running the microwave I heard a pop and it stopped working. Now all of the AC outlets, the air conditioner, microwave and house battery charger are dead. I’ve flipped off/on all breakers in the power distribution box and checked the gfi breaker in there too. No change whatsoever. The 12V outlet, water pump and lights are all working. What am I missing? Thanks!

You may need to reset the generator. This video helped me when I had the same issue.

Thank you Deb, that’s exactly what it was. I flipped the switch on the generator like the guy said and now everything is working. I hope you are going to Morro Bay in March. I’d love to meet you in person. Thank you again 😁

While I’m at it, I thought I’d exercise the generator for an hour or so with the AC on. Also… I took Larry Wade’s advice from a long ago post and tighten the connection screws in the power panel. See Larry, we do pay attention 😁

Great John! I'm so glad it worked got you!
I won't be at Morro Bay but I do plan to spend the summer in the PNW, if you're up in that area. No more Texas summers for me. 😁

Sorry to miss you at Morro Bay. I can relate to hot summers, I spent a good part of this one in Nevada and Arizona. PNW sounds pretty good 😊

Late July in Washington was unusually warm this year, even at Rainer.
Will be passing through the PNW again next spring on my way to Alaska.
