Thanks for the heads up Dennis. The "can" I bought is labelled as a battery isolator. Diagram I linked to was the clearest one I could find after a quick google image search but I do see my grammatical error. Sorry! If possible, I'll double check the new "can" part specs online.

Be sure to get one for continuous duty. For a Westy the blue wire for the fridge relay will work although you may need to rev the engine a bit higher than normal to get the alternator kicked in due to the different coil loading the activation-warning light circuit. > > Dennis, > And I still can't type on this Windows 8 Phone! > ________________________________ > From: neil n<mailto:musomuso@GMAIL.COM> > Sent: 3/13/2013 2:43 PM > To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM<mailto:vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> > Subject: Re: Alliance Deep Cycle?
