Need Help With 2nd Battery Wiring And Fusing…

[Jmoney2544]

Hey Guys, I Was Just Wondering If This Diagram For The Wiring Of A Second Battery In Your Car Is Correct. My First Question Is Are Both Amps Running Of Both Batteries? Drew A Sketch Of What I Think You’re Supposed To Do. I Might Have A Few Mistakes, So If I Do Please Point Them Out So I Don’t End Up Burning Down My Car, Or Having A Short Somewhere. And One More Thing, Please Tell Me If All The Fuse Ratings Look Correct. Thanks

(PS, All 4 Gauge JL Copper Wire, Not Changing To 1/0 Gauge, Sorry)

Your pic is right. The amps can pull power from both batteries. You have it drawn out right just make sure you fuse it, and groung it good in the back. Big 3 will halp you out also.

Good Luck

Your diagram does look correct to me. If possible i would try to run 0awg wire from your front battery to your back battery, but it might not be necessary because its a smaller battery.

EDIT: SORRY, i did not see that you would not switch to 0awg.

AND yes, both bamps will be drawing from both batteries simultaneously.

Also, make sure your ground locations are solid metal for better results.
