Does anyone happen to know where the auto-gen start controller is located on the '17 Discoveries? We took delivery of our Discovery last week and while testing everything out, discovered that the AGS won't start the generator (it primes and briefly engages the starter, but not long enough to start it). I want to make sure it is configured properly but heck if I can find it!

Thanks!

Base on your comment the electronics seem to be working properly..does the gen start manually? The reason I ask is when I first started mine it would take about 15 secs before starting.. Played with the firefly system and it started to work.

It does start with no problem from either switch (dash or bedroom) and from the Firefly screen. It's only the AGS call to start that has the problem.

It primes OK and then the starter either briefly engages (a revolution or two) or won't engage at all. It will keep trying for the number of tries I have set in the AGS setup, but it won't kick over.

And...How do you like your Discovery so far?

So far I like it. We have taken it out several times and getting use to everything, way more bells and whistles than our storm. Wife loves the washer dryer combo. The farthest we have taken it is a 5 hr. Trip with no issues. Will have to take itin for some warranty work and a recall.
