battery isolator

well i got it running now. the isolator was hooked up right. the second wire coming from the alternator wasnt reall hooked to anything it was just looped right to it. weird huh. i tested it all and all my tested showed good so i guess ill have to wait and see what happens. i think that my secondary battery may just not be holding a charge and in turn draing the primarry one. i dunnop just a thought. thanks for the diagram it helped a lot.

That's Great!

Remember, *Over time* Batteries NEED to be used to stay good.
If all you do is Charge a battery and not drain it somewhat,you will
have an overcharge condition and that destroys batteries.

I run my Truck stereo ,Box Topper Stereo & Box Topper lights off mine.
