Why does it look like you have 1/0 for power and 4 gauge for grounds?

Because I do lol. I have 5 ground points though. I bought a groundin kit made by a member on another forum so I jumped on it. It's good quality cadence 4 gauge wire along with my stock ground wires

I haven't upgraded to 0 gauge yet

THat a Honda? If so, you are seeing the ELD at work. I have a write up on it....

Get new battery terminals. Lots of resistance doing what you're doing. Get some made for adding more wires.

looks like a civic, and I know a lot of people that have had voltage go down after the big 3.

Try turning on everything in the car and use as much juice as you can and see if that keeps you steady around 14v. Might not be using enough to trigger the alt to constantly charge.

You mean remove my big *** 250 amp fuse?

No need to look at anything else. It is the ELD. When it drops to 12.5 the alt is off
