Blue sea add-a-battery question

Are you sure you hooked the starter cut-out correctly? Mine was miswired and the ACR never closed. I recommend disconnecting this wire until your other issues are worked out. It is currently not connected on my boat, and I have not noticed any electronics cutting out during engine starts.

On mine, if the battery gets depleted enough, the charging system voltage is too low to close the ACR. It catches up eventually. I have to admit though, that I'm basing this off of the partially broken battery voltage LED displays that were added by the PO. I don't have the remote LED wired in to monitor ACR status.

i was going to check the start isolator this weekend and make sure they got it wired to the positive side of the start switch. I will unhook it while we run the other checks and check the stators. thanks for the input and advice.
