@Vikingoff-Road yeah they are not engaged. I got the by pass on the rear and it's still the same thing. I'm thinking of putting th by pass on the front to see if that will clear it up.

Today I removed my number 42 fuse and disconnected the negative cable to my main battery. The start stop warning light on my dash went away and now my start stop works better than before. In the 90+ Oklahoma heat my air conditioner wouldn’t blow very cold using the auxiliary battery. Today, the a/c ran with full force when pulling from the main battery. It seems like my ESS is running as it should have from the factory. I think I remember getting 2 to 3 more miles per gallon with ESS. From here I’ll do a main battery upgrade. Any suggestions?

@Vikingoff-Road28 күн бұрын
Yes! Well lemme clarify by saying there have been times when I wish the bed was an extra foot longer. For packing stuff. And there are times where I wish the cab was longer also. I’m 6’5” so it gets tight in a Jeep sometimes.
@brenndanb669126 күн бұрын
OK cause the four-door bronco two that I’m working on building I measured the wheelbase cause I felt like it was really long and I’m actually 6 1/2 inches longer wheelbase than a gladiator so I wanted an opinion on how it does off-road that makes me feel a little bit better about the build. I felt like it was way too long. If I could add a photo, I would send you a photo of it because I know. You were interested in it when we ran into each other at Maverick

If I read you correctly, which makes total sense, the aux battery is to run the fan for the A/C at the stop light with the motor off. What you are missing is the aux battery is one of those AGM batteries. They are mean for high cycle discharge/charge use. You are now transfering that useage to the main lead acid battery. Bad JU JU. This is going to shorten the life of the main battery. You might want to upgrade the main battery to an AGM type. But they are not cheap. Most new cars are switching to AGM because of all the computer modules that have to run for a bit after you park at night. Let us know when your main battery goes Kaput.
