Hi all, This is my first post to the group and from what I have been reading, I'm sure someone out there knows the answer to my question. Here is my question. I am installing a second battery for in a Westy (1981), for the fridge. I'm wiring the thing up now and am noticing two wire feeding under the divers seat. The first is a fused red one. I have that one figured out. The second is a white wire. It does not have an in-line fuse and connects to a thinner blue wire by a insulated solder less connector. This second wire has no current running through it regardless if the key is in the ignition and accessories running or not. I need to know what is the function of this second wire. Does it need a positive current at all times or only when the accessory key is on? Or is it even a positive wire? Is it possible it is a ground wire for something? Basically what does it supply to? Currently the westy was not wired to accept a second battery. Everything had to be added. Thanks in advance for any help. I can't put the driver's seat back in until I figure this out! Regards, Mark
