    Onan 5500 generator has no power to it

    We have a 2017 Grand Design 348M and boondocking using the generator to watch TV, and all was fine. We turned it off went to bed, when we woke up to make coffee, went to turn on the generator, pushed the toggle switch to prime on the remote panel and no light, pushed to start and it’s dead. Went out to the generator and did the same and same result. No power to the generator at all, checked my batteries and they are charged and getting 12v to the generator. But as I said, no power on the generator control panel. I reset the two breakers and still dead. Any suggestions.

    Is the control panel at the generator or part of the GD coach?

    Looks like a remote harness that I would open and maybe try to prime and start at the generator.

    Also when he pulls the breaker panel away I saw a fuse holder or two, check those fuses.
