How to Replace Onan 10KW Generator Isolation Mounts: Complete RV Repair Guide
My 2013 Tiffin Allegro Bus generator (model 10HDKCA11506E) is producing violent shaking and a grinding noise that's absolutely driving me insane. The isolation mounts keep wearing out way too quickly - I just had them replaced 19 months ago and they're already shot again.
Last repair used parts #402-1680-02, but my Onan parts manual shows I should have 2x #402-0728-01 and 2x #402-0728-02 isolators. The generator only has 34 hours since the last mount replacement, and symptoms are obvious - excessive noise, vibration throughout the coach, and the oil drain plug hanging below the frame.
