christamez80 Posted May 14, 2012 Author Report Posted May 14, 2012 I ran a 0 gauge wire from the battery up front to the battery in the back and grounded the back battery to the body. Its in a tahoe. Quote
Team_DC-Derrick Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 sounds like a really bad ground to me, did you sand it down to bare metal? try a different location?

Nightshade Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 The new battery that you installed may have a bad cell in it. Try testing the second battery by itself and see what kind of readings that you get.

Keith77 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 I would move your rear ground to the frame! Quote Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born. My penis is bigger than your penis I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.
christamez80 Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Posted May 15, 2012 I replaced the ground wire to da frame and still da same. I jumped a lil higher but not much. Quote
