RV Repair: no power after generator shut down, invertor, indicator lights


Question
When camping the other day, we started our generator to run the microwave and everything was fine until we shut the generator down.  After we shut the generator down, we had no power at all.  We finally got power back on by starting and stopping the generator a couple times.  Is this a problem with the invertor?  Can you help?

Answer
Check all of you breakers and fuses on the inverter. This could be the problem. OR there is a unit that switchs the power from the generator to shore power, this may also be causing your problem. There are some indicator lights located on this box that will help you determine if it is faulty.
