1976 Dodge Charging system Mike Barta 4-12-01  
Just bought this unit and have no literature...The batteries are not charging when the engine is running and I would like to check out the system before pulling the alternator. Also, the entire electrical system dies when I unhook the rear battery, so there is obviously a switching system or something similar for charging both, and it is either screwed up or something is wired wrong. Thanks for any help.
