3. Check to see if battery cables are pulled out of connector. 4. Check cables at battery terminals. Connections should be tight, with no corrosion. 5. Check inside connector at internal contacts for damage, dirt, or corrosion. DO NOT use a metal object to clean connector.
3. Installation The cables to either half of the connector have a lip on the forward end. This lip snaps over a spring-loaded retainer which is part of the connector. To remove a cable from the connector, push retainer down while pulling battery cable towards the rear and out of the connector. NOTE!
Battery charger unintentionally connected to battery connector at truck chassis would result in premature, unwarrantable, logic card failure. Installation of spacer block onto charger connector would prevent a battery charger to truck connection.
1. Disconnect power supply to battery charger. 2. Attach spacer block to the topside of the battery connector from the battery charger using two cap screws and two hex nuts. NOTE!
Verify spacer block is installed correctly by attempting to connect the battery charger connector to truck battery connector. If properly installed, the spacer block will not allow the battery charger connector to slide against truck chassis and will prevent a connection of battery charger and truck battery connector.
3. Reconnect supply to battery charger.
