OK, I bought the 2nd battery install kit from bus depot, not much more
than $2 in parts but the instructions were very helpful.  Anyway, I
hooked up per the instructions my new optima and was wondering how I can
troubleshoot this to ensure it is actually working., for example, can I
pull the ground off my main and will the optima second start it (and
will this show that it is properly connected?)  Really want to ensure
that the main battery is isolated but that when the key is "on" that I
am recharging the optima

Thanks in advance
