If the voltages are low you could have a bad BIRD or BIM. As a temporary work around, you could start the generator and run it for around 4 minutes, then trying to low lower the jacks. If no low battery indication. then you know the alternator is not charging the house batteries. If you still get a low voltage with the generator running, I would guess you have a chassis battery going bad.


What is a BIRD and Bim?
