How strong are the house batteries? Does the generator turn over? Is the power cord plugged into a receptacle on the motorhome?

I'm trying to pick out what you mean here.

I think, I get that you got the generator started.

It is making power by turning on the circuit breaker.

It is not charging the starting batteries.

It is normal for it not to charge the start batteries in the older years.

You need a small, seperate charger/maintaner to hook to the start battery from the generator power or a Trik-L-Start to hook between the house batteries and the start batteries.

I hope this helps.
