Battery Wires

Post by berger »

Hey Guys.

Complete brain fart here. Which battery wire goes where? Is the rear most battery negative terminal connected to the wire coming from the left side of the battery box, and is the positive terminal on the fore battery connected to the wire coming from the rear of the box?

Thx guys.

You've got the wire polarity correct but I have the neg. terminal on the front battery connected to the battery switch and the positive terminal on the rear battery connected to the wire out the rear of the battery box that goes to the starter.
The design and terminal placement on your batteries partly dictates the best layout.
Hope this helps.
