Battery power

My truck has a battery cut-off switch. It also has a spaghetti mess of several circuits connected directly to the battery. I'm thinking of using a weatherproof fuse block to neaten up the wiring, and connecting it after the cut-off switch. Is there anything that HAS to be connected directly to the battery all the time? I have a Cummins/Freedomline combination.

I know on the other automated transmissions they want the transmission controller wired directly to the battery. Might want to check your manual.

Probably a good idea to verify each of the "spaghetti" lines to see what they power and make a more "educated" decision on your next step.

 

Agreed. Some of the circuits look factory and some looked added on. One goes to the refrigerator. I'd like to label each circuit, but I just got the truck last week and haven't had a lot of time to mess with it.
