Just got into Mx and on shoreline power 30 amp. Generator was on then kicked off while leveling. Got low voltage read on leveler. Went to check generator and it kicked off

I'd just kick it.

But seriously, what do you mean kicked out, kicked in. Is the generator running but no power out. You say you are on 30amp shore power why would you need to run the generator. Is the converter on. A little more specific information would help.

Isn't the correct procedure to have the engine running while leveling?

Yes....with parking brake "on"...at least with mine. Mine will not work otherwise.

My 31W requires at least key on and parking brake. But the slide wall requires key off.
