    driving lights power source D3?

    Hi all. Am in the process of moving my mods etc from D2 to D3. Want to install my Fyrlyts on the bumper until I get a bar. In looking at the battery connections there appears to be a normal -ve connector fitted, but the +ve seems to be a connection block that hangs off the side of the battery. Is this some sort of monitor for smarter charging etc? If so, where can I tap into the highest current most direct connections?

    Thanks
    Regards, Will

    Hi winaje, and there is a tapped 8M hole on the top of the cranking battery’s positive ( + ) terminal but you MUST NOT connect anything to the cranking battery’s negative ( - ) terminal, as this will interfere with the D3’s BMS.

    For the positive terminal, you can use an 8M x 12mm bolt and job done.

    For the negative connection, if you have a look at the inside of the guard, just in front of the cranking battery’s plastic compartment, you will see two 6M studs. You can use these for the negative connection.

    The D4 has a 500A fuse for the starter cable there so probably the same.
