I did some searching on the forum and couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for. I have a 1999 Crownline with a 4.3l Mercruiser in it. It currently has a single starting battery for everything. I want to install a second deep cycle battery with a 1 2 both switch so when stopped I can run accessories without worry. I've read the instructions, but I still have a question. My battery currently has a 1 AWG wire along with a few smaller gauge wires connected to the positive terminal. The switch instructions say that the common connection should go from the switch to the starter, but I'm wondering about all the wires that are currently connected to the battery. Should everything that is connected to my battery go to the common on the switch? Then I would wire each batter to the respective 1 and 2 spots on the switch?
