Are you sure that is the isolator lead? Can you trace it back to the fuse/relay panel?

[Agrantina]

I can check again tomorrow- red wire plugged into a metal holding bracket (just to hold it) its 6 gauge red wire- only wire that is that heavy- I can see and it goes in behind the 60A fuse box labeled isolater- but will trace it down tomorrow and make dang sure. the metal bracket its slides into is just a metal clip- No wires to it and the plug has a rubber stopper in the end- that I took out for the pic..

Thanks for any help

Glad I can post this to maybe help someone else.. I traced the wire back to the fuse block and it is the correct wire- If you look at the pics you can actually see the "CAP" on the plug-. Yes there is a protective cap on the plug from the motor- mine was glued/crimped on so it was not easy to get off - I used some heat to get it off- the cord is long enough from the fuse block to get it away from the motor- just have to loosen up some tie downs. Once you get the dang thing off the part number above is the correct part..

Thanks for all the help - great website!!

Aha. The light has been turned on.

It never dawned on me that I was looking at a photo of the cap that was on the connector. Stupid me. I shoulda known.

Got to put this one in the database for future reference.

Thanks for the feed back. It is how we all learn.

All good- I was able to finish all of it today- wired in the isolater and the new fuse block to get rid of all the inline fuses to the battery. Thanks for all the help from all.. Now next time I go out I will see what the motor is putting out on that battery?

Just for S&G I ran my motor in driveway and checked the lead with meter before connecting it. 14.4 volts. F150 btw.

[Agrantina]

Good to know that and thats a good charge..

[Agrantina]

The crank battery and the battery that the new isolater lead is connected to (house) are both reading 14.4v when running!!

I assume you have battery switch on 1 while checking?
