Ok, that indeed is the 12 volt "buss", you referred to. You definitely should not see 24 volts there.
As for the resistor, it's just a piece of wire, it is not magical. It has to be used in a complete curcuit to do its job(resist). That is why you will read 24 volts at the relay until the...
Sounds like it was an M1028 , does it have or did it have(look for the spring stops on the sides of the frame rails) rear helper springs?
If so, probably someone removed the front and rear axles for the rear locking diff and the front limited slip diff.
So, one 15 amp gfci, feeding the other 3 receptacles, all plugged into one 120v service outlet fed with some 14ga so cord will work?
Maybe if all you want to plug in is 8 radios or other low amp items.
The op never mentioned he wanted to be code compliant.
The light blue wire is 18 ga, I would use some 14 ga because it's readily available and works well with normal size(blue)(what I guess most people have around)crimp fittings. 18 is pretty small to work with and would require smaller connectors(red) than most people probably don't have on hand.
Well, if it's wired wrong, or runs the generator off balance, or fused incorrectly or not at all, it's all a mute point.
I wonder why the op didn't care to share the pertinent info to make the correct decision.
Well, how is it going to be used, what amp rating receptacles, what wire size, and how many circuits, and from what model generator, just for starters.

LDT= Liquid cooled diesel with turbo
LDS=Liquid cooled diesel with supercharger( Actually a turbo charger), higher output motor than the LDT.
When you add a turbo(like the MWO for to assist with emissions, aka clean air kit), you are instructed to change the timing...
