Hello Hermando, I assume your truck battery is 12 volt. You would want to select 12v 2a for a long slow charge or 12v 6a for a shorter faster charge.

SOURCE: Meter Explanation

You are correct on all accounts. A high number means you dying battery is sucking more juice from the Schumacker. A low number means the battery is not as thirsty. That's how I always think of how to read the meter on mine. Slow charge is a better, deeper charge. The quick charge will get you going, but you should maybe follow it up using the normal mode - car alternator and prolonged drive time. I never use quick charge, personally.

The Interstate battery is a sealed battery, meaning no vent. It is a better and higher quality battery than the factory battery.

SOURCE: ML320 while driving battery light

You have a short in the wiring - the sense voltage indicates that. Since this happens only with the engine running it must be related to either the ECM or the dashboard.

SOURCE: car won't start, battery dead.

Call someone in service dept at a mbz dealership. They can input your cars vin number and tell you if that car has battery connections under the hood. My 2000 s430 doesnt have any under the hood.

What settings should I use for my deep cycle battery. At 85aph. Also can I charge 2 batteries that are connected parallel ?

Batteries can be charged parallel using the correct voltage but it's always better to charge them independently. This allows you to better evaluate the battery condition as well as making it easier to identify problem cells.

My suggestion is to never use the 100 amp start except when you have someone to crank the engine while you operate the charger. You really don't want to pump 100 amps into the battery unsupervised, it could explode if frozen and may even have other issues.

The 30 amp boost is a quick charge. Your best setting is the 6 amp which will build back the voltage gradually. The 2 amp is the slowest charge, some folks use this for deep cycle charging marine batteries and just when you are in no hurry to use the battery.

Sears Lt5000 battery. How check?

All batteries need to be fully charged. It should hold about 12.3 volts. Amps is the important thing and if you have a ful battery, and the machine turns sluggishly, it means the battery is low in amps. This reduces over time and can only be tested with a special tester. Any Interstate shop or garage will test it for you free of charge.

My 2009 Chevy pickup with a Duramax diesel engin has two batteries. What is the correct way to connect a battery charger? Do I need to disconnect each battery and charg it independently?

Doing it together or apart dont really matter. If you do charge it together you wont be able to see what battery is going out.

Now if you do one by one you should be able to find the bad one just from the charger.

Now if you just ran the systm down charge together...
