Ok so I got everything working after hours of running wires and test fitting. The only thing I can’t figure out is why I have constant power to my dual volt meter. I’m sure it’s something simple I messed up but my brain is fried so any help is appreciated.

I never did figure it out. I put it on a switch. It needs key on ground and I never seen anybody say anything about how to do that.

Did you figure out why you had constant power? I'm having the same issue right now with my true isolator kit that came with the dual volt meter. I ran the two wires from each side of the isolator to the correct spots on the volt meter, then spliced into the white/black acc. Wire and ran that to the third spot on volt meter. My volt meter is on with key off, then with key on it turns off. Opposite of what you want. Any ideas?

I never did figure out why it’s still on. I just left it as it is. Anyone else figure it out yet?

This sucks... All I want is a simple setup for my radio, a future winch, and maybe a spare key on circuit for something down the road. I will do the dual battery setup before I put the winch in. Gosh this is so complicated and expensive...

Just finished the hard parts. Took my time over 3 weeks. They guys on the forum are the best and I actually enjoyed the wiring project. Biggest challenge was securing all the right parts and having them before I started. Here are some photos of what I've done so far 27248692545a7f0ba5feb9cd4dcff0684253256346c8bd6a591129649b2f55a5175dd81da726175ea8a9c5e13c0a7b80A6268cac1f7dd2ebfa0072803b0554ca6149ccb4e69b4a457040fa8810b4bc3d94ee1fca1685fe8ffd56371243c0f529
