eric_b wrote:The toggle you are looking at should also start the genset, it should be a 3 way toggle, stop/neutral/start. There will also be a toggle/button directly on the generator. What model genset does the boat have? Mine is an ONAN MCCK 6.5 gas genset.
Thanks for the info. Mine has the Koehler 7.5R . The only Switch I can find is the one on the main panel, its a two way toggle that just has off/Start, however I was reading something yesterday that would indicate that the the two way toggle switch may be the only one and that the Generator just stops the starter once the engine is started. I was looking for the remote control panel that is apparently an option because when I tried to use the start toggle nothing happened. I guess I will need to check the connections etc from the battery/Switch. Thanks again for your time.
Regards,
Terry
