I am installing a 24/12/60 battery equalizer and a fuse box for running my accessories off the battery, The TCM will also be rewired to the fuse box. Do you think its a good idea to disconnect the 14V lead from the regulator, i'm not sure if I should have the equalizer to the rear battery...
There is a cable connected to the 14V side of the dual voltage regulator and I followed it to another harness but couldn't figure out where it goes to. What is this cable is used for since the truck is a 24V system
