New to this but trying to get my Montauk 170 into the water after the winter. When I took the battery out last winter I swear I took pictures of the wiring so that I would remember how to do it in the spring. Can’t seem to locate them.
I tried looking at the electrical diagrams in the manual but can’t make sense of them.
I connected the negatives and positives on the two batteries but there are these extra wires. I thought I recall they were on the negative terminal but not so certain.
On my 210 MTK (2023), I have two batteries uncovered but they are in bilges in the back. The wire connections are all color-coded (red to positive and black to negative). All the smaller ring terminals go to the main battery, and the second battery only has the post/neg connections.
