Okay guys I will need some help on this one. This wiring seems strange to me especially with the isolator. I have a Guest battery Isolator that has 5 lugs on it (labels missing) that I assume is for a one generator two battery setup. I don't get how they have this thing wired, it almost seems backwards to me.

It also appears that my port battery is only being charged by my port alternator and can only be used to start the port engine.

Any help would be appreciated.

you can up load to a free service like photobucket.com then you choose the pictures you want( clik the little box at the bottom left of the picture) scrool to the bottom of the page, clik generate html, it will take you to the next page, scroll down to thumb nails clik on that and copy, then insert it into your post.

also if you are planing on posting pictures, you can use the Blue post reply or the go advanced, manage attachments, there you can upload , directly from your computer. besure you pictures have been resized to fit the format. 640x480 max.

you may get direct help if you contact these guys. http://www.marinco.com/scpt/brandDr...edSection=Battery Isolators#Battery Isolators

I already contacted Marinco and they sent me documentation but it still does not make sense. Their documentation seemed generic and didn't match the isolator that I have. As you can tell from the drawing I made, the isolator seems to have 2 inputs with 1 output which does not make sense, seems to be reversed, that is why I think they have it wired wrong.
