THOR #26953
Beeping outside Gemini 23TE 2022

We have an intermittent beep outside the coach—about every 15 seconds that seems to be coming from passenger side near generator. It is happening while we are parked and hooked up.

Seems like you could easily trace a constant every 15 second beep to its source? Not much else in that corner on the outside but the generator. Maybe the prime function is stuck ON?

I have a dog that will quickly find it for you... any beeping and noises like that drive him crazy! He LOVES the noise the hydraulic jack pump makes...

New to bring and don’t know what the prime function is

The fuel priming circuit. On many Onan generators it's actuated by the start rocker switch... pushing it downward engages the prime pump... pushing it upward engages the starter motor.

So should I push it up or down?

I suggest you crawl under your rig and listen for the "beep" to get a better idea of the source. Narrow it down to a more specific area before trying solutions which may not be relevant.

You’re right. We’ll try that that. Right now it’s pouring rain (of course). Thanks.

Isn't a 2022 MH generator controlled by the BMPRO panel instead of a discrete switch?

Could be the alert mechanism for the stabilizers. The beeping comes from a device that is in the cavity under the microwave. It can be finicky.

We had a similar beeping issue on our 2021 Compass. It turned out to be the stabilizer down warning. The stabilizers appeared to be fully retracted, cycling the stabilizers solved the issue.

The stab jacks warning is either when you start the engine, or put the transmission in gear with the jacks extended. It is faint... don't ignore it or you'll be prying your jacks to straighten them... don't ask!

Worth investigating though...
