I have been lurking around here for quite a while. This will be my second post. Thanks in advance for all the help.
Anyway.... I have been experiencing some electrical problems as of late with my 94. It all started when the manual high idle control the previous owner had retrofitted failed for me. The set up loosely resembles the way the diagram in the tech section recommends.
I now have a question regarding batteries. It is quite cold here this weekend, - 35 degrees celsius!! I had the batteries on a trickle charge all weekend, and the block heater energized for the weekend. I took the batteries out of the truck this evening and load tested the, well both of them failed. The batteries appear to be relatively new and had worked perfectly up to this point.
My question is this.... What can cause two batteries to fail simultaneously? No the batteries had not been frozen and yes I did check the levels. At no point did I take them completely down.
Any input is appreciated.
