Hooray!  What a sweet sound - my Westy motor running!  We put it on a
charger at 2 amps so it took some time.  My husband's volt meter showed just
under 12 volts for both batteries.

The aux install is very unaesthetic.  The battery compartment doesn't close
properly.  That's something I'd like to check into when I get time.  I have
no idea what I left running that drained the battery.  At least if it
happens again, I'll know to put it on the charger for a couple of hours.

I think I've just decided on a name for my Westy - Scarlett O'Hara! Now to
get some extra fuses!
Patti
1990 Westy (Burgundy)
"Scarlett O'Hara"
