ms60ocb Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 What is the extra Hardware/connections on top the batteries. I have a 2015 Freightliner M2 106 that is past due for replacement batteries. I never paid much attention to the top of the batteries because out of site, out of mind. It there a connection diagram? what is the extra connection? Personally I'm not able to physically handle hardware of that size . The local truck shop will get the work so I'm not sure if this will be as strange to them as I. Clay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noteven Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 Being of mostly unsound mind I take a pitcher of wires before disconnecting said wires in case my search for a “deal” takes more than a couple days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
folivier Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 Buy a pack of colored ty-wraps and mark each end and terminal with same colors. I use these all the time when working on wiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ms60ocb Posted June 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 I'm more interested in the extra hardware. I can't read anything off the device, is it resistive, a diode, fuse or?? The truck engine is a Cummins ISL 8.9 which could also be in a coach. folivier - I do like like to use colored used ty-wraps. Clay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ms60ocb Posted June 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2020 This picture shows the little enclosure box in question. I have no idea what is inside. I may have cut about 1/4 of the little enclosure off is downsizing. The terminal at the left edge of the photo is the Pos terminal of the left hand battery and the right hand end of the little enclosure is near the Pos terminal of the right hand battery.

ms60ocb Posted July 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 It was a hot day this week when the batteries was disconnected. The little box is to protect fuse. I didn't look at the size or what the cable feeds.. Someday without the sweat. Thanks for comments Clay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
