explain how these ground to me???

[corelokt]

Doing a bunch of wiring under my hood and dash. Have the two extra fuse boxes in, one under the hood, one inside. The one inside controls the switches to the relays powered off the one under the hood. The one inside is powered off a relay that is fused out of the engine compartment box, and switched off of a wire that is hot only when the key is on. All good.
Thought I'd clean up the junction boxes for the battery cables. Did so, but got to wondering how the batteries ground, the alternators ground, and why the little thing going between the hot to the ground junction boxes?

Core... let me refresh my memory. You have a 1009??

I am not sure what fuse boxes you are talking about? Are these ones you are adding?

I will write up a theory of operation on the battery/charging system later today, and put it in the FAQ article. I will post here when its done.

Not positive what little thing you refer to between the junction blocks, but I suspect its a noise filter.

The fuse boxes are my own for my use. The little thing is a jumper of some sort, with something small wired between the ends. I thought noise filter myself. A write up would be great. I am worried about over grounding mine and making the alternators work funky.
I wonder if I can use the back blackout as a place for backup lights?
I'm thinking of using the front for a driving light , with a fog lamp bulb and receptacle.

and put it in the FAQ article.

We have an FAQ article? I thought that is what the Wiki was?
