If you are not comfortable working around exposed high voltage, then DO NOT follow my suggestions.
I would take the top off the transfer switch, and using a voltmeter, measure the voltage coming from the generator into the xfer switch AND the voltage on the other side of the contacts associated with the generator input. Your comment of buzzing could mean the contacts in the xfer switch are sketchy.
This quick diagnostic will tell you 1. if the voltage coming from the generator is low or variable, 2. If the contacts in the xfer switch are burned, 3. If the problem is upstream or downstream from the xfer switch.
