O.K. I couldn't wait. Located the transfer switch under the bed. Got the cover off (that was no easy task!). It is an Iota Model ITS-50R.

It looks like a fairly simple process to swap out the old one for a new one.

Anyway, I don't have a meter, just a test light. I followed the schematic under the cover and there are 3 sets of lines. GENERATOR - POWERCORD - PANEL.

With the generator running and shore power disconnected the GENERATOR lines light up the tester. The POWERCORD and PANEL lines show no signs of life.

With shore power connected and generator off, the POWERCORD and PANEL lines light up the tester.

So, I assume that your diagnosis is correct. Now Doc, the recommended treatment. Change the entire transfer switch ($115.00) or just the time delay module board ($16.00)?
