G glider Veteran Member Apr 11, 2009 #2 You will get a spark when hooking the cable up. There is a small draw when first connection is made.
K kv69 Member Apr 11, 2009 #3 Well this is a pretty strong spark and then it sounds like a relay or something is opening and closing.

K kv69 Member Apr 11, 2009 #7 Did that light stayed lite on I pulled one fuse at a time. Is there only one fuse box ?
G glider Veteran Member Apr 11, 2009 #8 Should be only one main fuse panel unless some inline fuses have been added. Unplug the voltage regulator and test it again.
