Is the battery warning light on? If not, check the green / red wire going from the dash to the generator. That is the turn-on signal to the voltage regulator.

Measure the voltage on the yellow wire at the generator. There should be 12 volts there all the time. If it's missing, replace the blown 15 amp fuse.
