    Battery replacement

    Just saw this reply..... 😬, the wires for 12v go to a panel with it's own on off switch, so yes it will still send power, but only on demand, and only for emergencies. I will get a picture up of them installed though. As for the placement of the interrupt switch, I wasn't confident at first but...

    Battery replacement

    That would explain why the forward battery needed replacement, well that and it was a 7 year old everstart that was too small for the truck to begin with (750cca and 850@32°).

    Battery replacement

    Update: charged one of the batteries for 12.5 hrs, discarded the second one and replaced it with an old napa I had, hooked everything back up, cranked and about unhinged my jaw from smiling so hard.

    Battery replacement

    Wonderfully enough, my dogbone has been replaced with an interrupt switch, mounted in what I'm guessing is an A3 plastic box (this is my first MV and previous owner didn't go into much detail). The switch works, so when it's off, the batteries are isolated the same way as if the dogbone were...

    Battery replacement

    Anyone have the TM (if one exists) for the proper battery terminal/battery removal process for the A2? I have searched my manual and many threads on here, plus web, and nothing.
