3 days ago I got the information that Gary Nichols’ technicians will come and re-install the genset.

They used a smart approach to make sure the generator drive belt is well aligned.

An immediate test failed. Reason was momentarily unclear. As it was already late they left to come back.

Today they came back and it turned out the the main on-off switch had problem.

Bridging this switch and the engine started cranking. Bleeding the fuel system to get the air out and the engine started running again. Remote start-stop button works as well. General voltage was there as well.

I have now to install the newly painted enclosures then this system is back to normal and enables a normal life on board again.
