BATTERY PARALLEL SWITCH
If the battery parallel switch fails to operate, check the
breaker located above the push button switch. Always
fi nd the cause of the problem before resetting the circuit
breaker.
A second area to investigate is the battery solenoid located
in the engine room. When the switch is pressed the solenoid
energizes the appropriate second battery for additional
engine cranking capability.
Normally, if you hear a solenoid click it is operating
properly. Check all solenoid and battery connections for
tightness.

If the battery switch should lose power to one of the
batteries, check the breakers close to that battery switch.
Look for a “popped breaker. The above problem could
be recognized by the appropriate icon not being lighted
at the DC distribution panel. These breakers protect the
charging/battery circuitry. Always fi nd the cause of the
overload before resetting the circuit breaker.
