    PrecisionPlex Generator Light continues to flash

    Some time ago, our generator light started to only flash when the gen is running. In the past it would flash while the system prepared to start…would then be lit solid. Any ideas what changed or how I can get this reset?

    Hello, I have a 2016 Sunseeker MBS 24H. I know nothing about it at this point. I bought it used though it's in great shape. I am "guessing" that if I am not running the generator then I cannot just plug in my laptop computer and a 2nd computer monitor to one of the AC plugs and be in...

    Removing Yamaha generator from XLR 2815

    The hole is too small to pull the generator out. Only option I can see is to pull the door frame off. Does anybody know if there is some tip I’m missing? Really don’t wanna pull the door/trim off and then have to reseal it.

    Generator autostarts while plugged in

    Just had the generator start while the XL is in the backyard plugged into a 30 amp circuit. A check of the amperage draw shows 16 amps ( which shouldn't matter) but begs the questions what is drawing that much power? Shutting the refrigerator off reduced the draw by 1 amp (??). The only other...

    Generator Issue, please help Brian

    During the PDI, we started the Generator at least once. When we stopped it, the Precision Circuits display showed the system rebooting. I should have made the tech do this a few times rather than buy his story that such things happen. So, 50 miles from Moab, 700 miles from home I exercise...

    Touch pad in 2022 Isata 5 won't start generator

    I tried to start the generator using the in cabin touch pad and it turned green a few times but wouldn't actually start it. Then it was just grey. I manually started it and the touch pad would turn it off. It worked before, nothing has changed--it only has two thousand miles on the unit...
