Need help with battery wiring

Post by hooked »

I have a 1988 F32 with a genset the boat has four batteries that I am not sure if the previous owner has hooked up right. the wiring in my battery box looks like a bowl of noodles. Any idea where I might fond a diagram or I someone could talk me through how everything should be hooked up. We went out the other day and after being on the hook for about six hours my port battery was too low to crank the engine. I tested the batteries and they all check out ok. Thanks

Some of the info from this thread may help you out. Wiring diagrams should be very similar, and additional info about the paralleling 'black box' might give you one more piece of the puzzle.
