Positive Leads—Power should be connected from Battery positive terminal or discon-
nect switch (battery side of switch) to CP via 10 amp fuse / circuit breaker.
Check that all battery connections are tight.
Verify that Bonding Wire is properly connected to Bonding stud (see sec. 2.7).
Verify that all connectors are properly inserted into their recepticles (Station Cables,
