No AC out, DR1512 [RE-wrenches]

Just sold a used DR-1512 that was working fine during the reinstall. Now, 
he reports it turns on (green LED), hums, but there's no AC out using it 
as an inverter/battery system.

He has checked the built-in DR circuit breaker, and the separate Trace AC 
Out and Gen In circuit breakers. Pounded the DR with the heel of his hand 
in hopes the internal xfr. relay was "stuck" in the gen mode. No joy! It 
still functions fine feeding 120 AC from the gen input through the Trace 
output wiring while charging, but not as an inverter. Battery voltage is 
fine.

The new owner swears he never starts/stops his gen without the gen. 
circuit breaker off, so I don't think it's an inrush current/spike/high 
THD problem. Ideas?
