The fact it was clicking on/off would also lend towards your finding. The connections being loose drop the voltage the seperator is seeing so it turns itself off thinking the truck voltage is falling. Once off the lack of draw will cause the voltage numbers to rise again and it'll turn itself back on. Repeat.

Once I have the camper on the truck again I'll confirm the voltage is getting past the separator. The truck battery was at 12.6 volts with the motor off and at 14.3 with the engine on. My understanding is that with at least 14.10 volts coming into the camper charging system the separator should be open allowing the charging of the camper batteries? The Sure Power website says as long as the separator senses 13-13.5 volts in the charging system it connects the truck battery and camper batteries...when it drops below 12.4-12.9 volts it closes the connection. So my understanding is I should have at least 14 volts coming into the separator in the camper with the truck running and therefore into the batteries?

I thought there was an "Ultimate Battery Thread" somewhere in the forums?
I am looking for some schematics or detailed instructions on what parts are needed, and instructions on how to install an auxiliary battery between my inverter/converter in camper and truck battery.
I have searched and come up with nada.
Thanks!
