Howdy,

I spent the day installing a GoWesty battery kit (ordered from Volks Cafe, go figure). I'm trying to fix a charging problem discovered during the baja whales tour (aux battery charging).

But have a couple questions: 1 - where does the red wire from the circuit breaker go? I assume to the battery + terminal, but it's not described in the instructions. 2 - the van's battery light is now on when the engine is running. Any suggestions on what to investigate?

I'm planning to go through all the wiring again in the morning.

Thanks,

Joel
