Thank you handy Andy. So your saying what I’m describing is total normal at idle with the xterra? Wonder if I can bypass that sensor on negative cable

So I never really took notice , maybe truly my xterra charging system can’t handle my comp radio and 2 pill. I check my ground yesterday 0.2 at seat bolt , probes together same reading. Long story short when I’m on the move I have ZERO issues as I described at idle . Also my linc 2 plus shows at...

I will tomorrow and get back with you all.

So , crawl under truck and run a ground strap from seat bolt to frame would solve all this ? Also hard to believe all this from a 2 pill 1446

So with the dmm probe the Anderson clip leads key up and talk and look for how much voltage I have under modulation? What would be a normal range ???

Positive run is like 8-10 feet as a guess. Your ground is 9-10 feet long?

On that note on the move I have absolutely no issues with voltage drop or any of that stuff. As before with the horrible ground issues I had you could see battery gauge drop to like 12 on the move .

Mines only like 2 feet maybe 3 at most to seat bolt. As for power draw I’m at idle with heater on headlights and when I key up and talk the battery gauge drops slightly then recovers were it should be . I’ll post a video soon.but the negative cable run is ok? 2 feet ?

Yes thanks you all. I might now re do my positive cable run to battery from Anderson clip to 6 awg as well. With my comp 29 and 2 pill 1446 at idle I still see a lil draw for power , however thinking this might be normal?

This is a general internet pick of what I did . I sanded bolt threads and bolt washer and the whole bracket to shiny . Current reading 0.2 probs touched 0.2

So here the latest. I check the seat bolt with Dmm. Ohms set to 20 I touched probes together reading 0.2 . Ran one to negative terminal to battery other lead to seat bolt were eye lug is bolted to bracket. That reading was 0.2 so that’s 0.00 which is a great ground.

Yes thanks you

I’ll try it . Thanks . I’ll let y’all know

Who’s to say the new location rear seat belt bolt won’t work ? However you saying to run a cable to frame to seat bolt would work ??

I saw the cable going from negative battery terminal to the block . So run it to that ?

I found out my xterra can’t run a amp cable to negative to battery . The negative cable has some funky variable voltage reg module . So no good there . What do you suggest to do ? And yes the rear bolt is way better then the front bolt

How can a front seat bolt be no good for ground from amp but a rear seat bolt is ? And also rear seat belt bolt ? Strange ?

It’s just a lil 2 pill 1446

So that’s your guess while modulating? So everything sounds normal to you ?
