Generator issues

[wwalker56]

Can someone explain to me the battery source for starting generator? Both my engines start fine, but my generator doesn't. The volt meter on panel drops big when I starting.

Also, are sound shields available for 2004 ONAN's?

Unless you have a mechanical issue such as hydro lock I suspect bad connections either positive or negative.

What model and year boat do you have?

Have you looked in your manual?
