Will be doing more investigation today. looking for black Or burnt spot with such a loud boom occurring.
To confirm battery condition will perform carbon pile test on both batteries to confirm condition.
My set up does have the dog head conversion.

Thanks.

Well one battery did fail the carbon pile test . so most likely the cause of issue.
but while I'm into it, let's clean up some of the other Terminal issues,
Like the headlight fuse, that terminals melted Along with fuse block where that one goes. going to pull another separate fuse Holder and wire that it's 25 amp, When I got the truck somebody had a 30 amp in there real good.
