Ok, but do you have a sinlge or dual Diode altenator?

His is a single so you shouldn't Yes, you can, but you just shouldn't.

Go to bluesea.com and order thier FREE catalogue. It comes in a couple weeks and has each wiring system laid out and easy to understand. It gives all the diferent switch options. From what ive read bluesea is the standard now. I recommend the 5511e switch with the ACR. Its simple and easy to install, but each sysytem has its advantage and disadvantage. Check cables, if questionable, replace. These can be made by you cheaper and a better custom fit to your boat with the anchor crimper and the right connectors. Follow (ayba ??) rules and crimp then heat shrink.
