Title: Generator radiator
Post by: 18360 on October 23, 2019, 03:50:24 pm
I want to check the hoses on the generator radiator.
Do you have to pull it all out to access them?
And if so is that difficult.
So far I haven't had to do that.

Remove 2 bolts (1/2" I think) at the bottom left & right front sides of the generator tray and it will slide right out.

On some post GV models, you may need to remove the exhaust pipe bracket. Check before pulling out.

On mine I have to unbolt the exhaust flex hose. Not hard to do at all after you get under the coach

You'll have to remove the shield under the generator.  It's held on with four bolts.  Remove three, loosen the fourth and pivot it out of the way.

There must be several different designs or changes between year models.  I don't have to remove anything other than the 2 bolts that hold the slider shelf in place.

The same with ours but the downside is the poor design of the exhaust system with the flex exhaust pipe burning through the black insulation and trying it's best to burn into the plywood.
