4.8.4 Make the Electrical Connections
Note
: The battery supply cable may need to be cut
to various lengths to connect the power pack,
the batteries in the liftgate battery box, and the
vehicle’s batteries. For information on properly
crimping battery lugs onto the cable, refer to the
Cable Lug Installation section in this manual.
Note
: This installation uses two 12 Volt dedicated
batteries located in a separate battery box. This
confi guration requires two circuit breakers. One
circuit breaker is customer installed near the
vehicle’s battery box. The other circuit breaker is
factory installed in the liftgate battery box and is
preconnected to the On/Off power switch. These
circuit breakers provide the liftgate with protection
against anything that may contact the battery
terminals or other situations that could cause an
electrical short. The circuit breakers are able to
carry up to 200 Amps. The two circuit breakers
in this application will protect the “charge” cable
between the liftgate batteries and the truck
batteries.
