Those 2 lights dont light up on the dash dont light when I start the van up.Used to. I added a auxillery battery and changed the alt, and I think I fried something.The voltage at the aux bat is 13.02 V. Didnt check the main bat.TheV at the alt is 14.07. Measured with the engine running and the blue wire removed enough to place my  probe on the blade.Grounded to the engine. With the engine off, I get 0V at the bleu wire-key off. 5.72 with the key on.With the key Am, I frying my batteries too? 13.02 seems too high.Thanks
