hi
na i did not put the big red on batt 2. that batter is good its 12,7 volts. battery 2 might be connected to other things maybe USB or something. but anyway 13 volts = bad alternator?
Hi mate!
thx for help
i tried today i hooked off the batteri 2 just to be sure. i took of the ACR from batt 1. i read 12,45 volts and with engine running 13,02 volts.
i just whonder my batt 2 what is that doing? cuz when i hooked of red from batt1 (starter) i could not get any power? no...

didnt work same voltage with the other battery so i guess its nopt the batterys. cuz they are only 2 years old and both broken at same time i think not :P how to check if alternator is broken? or worn out
