RE: Battery life and ambient temps
Hi Al,

There is no separate alternator ground wire; the alternator is grounded thru the S60's engine ground strap. I think those guys are talking about adding a new wire, which sounds like a reasonable thing to do. If you were to do this I'd go with at least a 1 gauge or bigger. I believe my Prevost uses a separate ground wire. I'll check to see how they did it.

At one time BB did recommend moving the voltage regulator sense wire; I don't know if your coach has this change. The "sense" wire terminal "I" was moved to a new location at the "coach batteries insulated stud". Everything else can be left the way it was. The "coach batteries insulated stud" is the same place where the alternator's 2/0 output cable is attached.
