"Reduce the number of connected appliances, especially air conditioners and battery chargers". The only thing that is running is the Air that's the reason why I am running it. I bring it to Camping World and they say they don't know what it is.

Those pumps are pretty cheap quality.
I would suggest that CW check that pump.
Good luck.

If you aren't too thrilled about having CW check the generator (since CW already said: "We don't know") take your coach to a Cummins shop:
Cummins Service Locator
Our Axis had one of the bad fuel pumps: It quit and wouldn't restart again. Took it to a local Cummins shop and while the service write up guy was telling me that I should make an appointment and it would take them a month or so to get me in; the tech was replacing the fuel pump! LOL "Oh you're all done!"
It was really funny being at the Cummins shop with our little Axis parked next to all the big semi's--a little humbling
(Same thing happened when we got it aligned at a truck shop.)
