Question:

Hi folks, Interested in Deka 95-amp Battery Isolator DW08770. I would like to confirm how it should be wired to my 1986 Toyota 4 Runner. Alternator connector has L yellow fault wire, S white, Sense? and IG red, only on when IGN switch on. Alternator stud has the thick white B wire that goes to the battery. Based on Jamesons post https://www.etrailer.com/question-371433.html: Keep OEM wires on connector unchanged. Tap Terminal E through a ckt Brkr to IG wire. Move Alternator output to Pin A of isolator. Connect Starter batt to terminal 1 of isolator.
