unless the generator has an alternator the charging of the battery is done by the regular battery charger in your coach
I have an 86 PT and that's the way mine is set up

So, be sure your charger is turned on, plugged in, and the charger circuit breaker is on. Start the generator, turn the electrical distribution switch to Generator.
You might want to take a VOM, hook to generator battery and see if the voltage is increasing. Also, does the generator battery charge up when you have AC hooked up and electrical distribution set to one of the shore power settings. If it doesn't there is some other failure going on.

Some of you electrical GURUS can now weigh in on this

New topic: From some of your questions, it appears you may not have an owners manual. BB can zerox you one if need be
