Check all below deck wiring to be sure it is properly supported, that the insulation is sound, and
that there are no loose or corroded terminals. Corroded terminals should be thoroughly cleaned
with sandpaper, or replaced, tightened securely and sprayed with a metal and electrical protector.
Inspect all engine wiring.
Check the electrolyte level in the batteries regularly and add distilled water as necessary. If the
batteries are frequently charged by an automatic battery charger, the electrolyte level will have to
be checked more often. Keep the battery tops clean and dry. Dirt and water can conduct electricity
from one post to the other causing the battery to discharge.
The battery posts should be kept free of corrosion. Remove the cables and clean the posts and cable
clamps with a battery post cleaner or sandpaper as required. Coating the battery posts and cable
clamps with petroleum jelly or silicone grease will protect them and reduce corrosion. Battery
cables, both hot and ground, must be replaced when they show signs of corrosion or fraying.
Deteriorated cables cause a considerable voltage loss when high currents are drawn, as for starting
the engine.
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME IN THE BATTERY STORAGE AREA. AVOID
STRIKING SPARKS NEAR THE BATTERY. A BATTERY CAN EXPLODE IF
A FLAME OR SPARK IGNITES THE HYDROGEN GAS THE BATTERY EMITS
WHILE BEING CHARGED.
CORROSION ALLOWED TO BUILD ON THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS
CAN CAUSE A POOR CONNECTION RESULTING IN SHORTS, GROUND
FAULTS OR POOR GROUND CONNECTIONS. ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS
SHOULD BE CHECKED AT LEAST ANNUALLY AND CLEANED AS RE-
QUIRED. DO NOT ALLOW CORROSION TO BUILD ON CONNECTIONS.
THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ALWAYS SHOULD BE DISCONNECTED FROM
THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE INSPECTING OR SERVICING THE SYSTEM.
NEVER SERVICE ANY COMPONENT OF AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHILE
IT IS ENERGIZED.
