The Iota transfer switch not sensing generator output Turned out to be A screw on wireing connector in the neutral wire from the generator , that was installed in 2010 installation lost continuity . Coincidence that created very difficult diagnosis due to looking at a miswired generator connector or a faulty transfer switch . When it was a totally separate prob that would have shown up without the intrusion of the little buggers (squirells) All is well Generator handles A/C with no problem So Hopeing that Generator holds up due to all the modifications it would be a real pain to return for warranty Mainly had to mount onto Honda Frame as Predator frame would not fit in compartment !  Frank
