kodiak install issues

[ladywolf]

Hey guys,
For those of yall who've already installed their dual battery kit from kodiak, i'm having a bit of an issue. The only light i'm getting is the red, not the green or the clear. Where exactly does that extra piece of wiring that goes from the battery management cable hook into? Is there a specific fuse or something? The directions were not entirely clear. If one of yall can PM me with your number, or a good picture or better directions I'd really appreciate it. As it was there was some pieces missing out of the kit that I"m going to have to source or call them on monday about (dust boots and the like)

For better clarification, its that red/green wire with the blade connectors, if that helps any. Thanks guys, I appreciate it alot.

Which end are you looking at? The batteries should be hooked up like this.

Wait a minute, are you talking about the one that goes to 12v accessory?

no i'm talking about the battery manager stuff. theres another little connector with 2 red/green wires and a blade fuse. it attaches right down next to the 4way connector off the switch on the other end. It says "attach to ignition source" I dont know exactly where that goes.

You need to put it to a 12v that's only on when the ignition is on. Use the tiny fuse box under the dash. It's a white plastic box right below the hood release. I'll try to get a picture this morning.

Here are some pictures. I've got it plugged into the fourth hole above the purple guy. At some point I'll find an ignition 12v under the dash and run it there but this has been fine since the original install.

update: i can still hear the solonoid under the hood doing the switching thing, but i'm still not getting the green or clear LED. I guess I will be calling Kodiak tomorrow. I also never got the dust boots on my cables either.

and the newest update: I either got a bad switch or a bad solonoid. You cannot hear a click when you flip the switch from the middle position to the left, but you can when you switch from the middle position to the right. grrr. figures.
