Ah, well then - I don't have a wiring diagram - you need a Bentley manual
for that. The wiring of the aux battery is just as I described - I copied
the wiring from a Bentley manual when I did it!
There should be DC voltage coming out of the alternator/regulator so I'm
confused about the battery charger you refer to.

(I'm passing your message along to the Vanagon list - hoping someone there
can help.)

List folks: I received this message regarding the wiring diagram for, I
presume, the aux battery in a Vanagon. I told him how it was supposed to be
wired but I don't have a Bentley and I'm not sure what "charger" he's
talking about.
anyone can help him?
