Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Trucks / May 2007electrical question
Good morning, Just purchased a small used popup camper to pull behind my 02 Dakota V6. The Dak does not have a trailer tow package or HD alternator. The popup has a 12V battery for interior lights etc. Is it a problem to charge this battery by hooking up a wire from the + battery terminal in the Dak or will this possibly overload the alternator? TIA for any advice. >Good morning, > Just purchased a small used popup camper to pull behind my 02 Dakota V6. >The Dak does not have a trailer tow package or HD alternator.

TIA for any advice. There is no cause for concern here at all with alternator. I would suggest that you supply 12 volts to trailer that is switched on when vehicle is running so that you do not run down vehicle battery when it is plugged in and vehicle is off and camper it used a lot. That or make sure to unplug trailer feed when using 12 volts a lot in it. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com >>Good morning, >> Just purchased a small used popup camper to pull behind my 02 Dakota V6.

Yup, just look at the newsgroup. Specifically look at my thread from yesterday titles OT: Blow out.

Never as I recall, why because no one in here knows it because you don't use it. Contrary to your other statement, most in here do use a real and valid email address, though it is jumbled to prevernt idiots like you from spamming them.

TIA for any advice. i see no issue with hooking up the factory 12v supply to the trailer. your alternator i don't imagine would be in any danger.

TIA for any advice. It depends. The stock alternator is a quality piece. It will last for a long time. 100K miles and 10 years is not uncommon. But the stock alternator is designed to handle the electrical load of the truck as supplied from the factory, and that's about it. If you've added some heavy duty electrical components to your truck (lights, stereo), it may be close to overloaded now. Adding a deep cycle battery with a heavy discharge could create a problem. Especially at night. Imagine this scenario. You've been camping all week end. The trailer battery is quite low. Now it's dark and time to go home. Hook up the trailer, turn on the lights, and drive away. Your stock alternator is trying to charge both batteries, and run all the lights. I would go to the bone yard and find an alternator from a truck with a tow package.

TIA for any advice. I do not believe that you would have a problem with this, as long as the factory alt is not bad to begin with. Personally, I would opt for the high output (HD) alt as it would only serve you well to prevent any possible issues down the road. > > Good morning, > > Just purchased a small used popup camper to pull behind my 02 Dakota V6. [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > the high output (HD) alt as it would only serve you well to prevent > any possible issues down the road. No problem with the alternator, however: You need to isolate the trailer battery while the truck is cranking. Otherwise the trailer battery will try to help feed the starter. You can use a relay connected to the radio feed, the radio goes off when cranking. Or, connect the trailer battery through a switch and try to remember to flip the switch when you need to charge the trailer battery AND when you shut the truck off. I'd go with a relay. Use heavy wire to connect the two batteries, and make sure the trailer has a ground wire to the truck. Don't trust the ball as a ground path. If you need help wiring the relay, send me an email.

The ground has to be just as heavy too. > If you need help wiring the relay, send me an email. The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though. The danger there is being stuck at camp with two dead batteries. Two batteries in parallel isn't the best setup either. The weaker battery will draw the stronger one down to its level. This may not matter much with a popup camping trailer that sees only occasional use, but is a poor design when two or more batteries are always tied together. SignatureThis explains it ALL!!!

But Big Al indicated that he thought otherwise (you didn't read?) so I thought it was worth saying. Now, if we were talking about a motorcycle with a bitty battery, then yes, I'd isolate a big car battery from the starter motor. >>>You can use a relay connected to the radio feed, the radio goes off when >>>cranking.

You probably, no, *definitely*, should comment on my assertion that connecting a 12V car battery to a 12V motorcycle might not be a good idea. Do you agree, or disagree, or have any thoughts at all? Tell us! How about the parallel battery setup that I called a poor design, Dodge does that don't they? I haven't seen Dodge's dual battery setup personally, but I'm pretty sure it's been mentioned here. And I don't recall ever seeing any negative comments about it.

When I set up my '77 D200 for my 'Superwench' S3500, I used 1/0 welding cable to feed the 175A disconnects at the front & rear. I didn't *need* to go that large but, the wire wasn't too expensive (at the time), and it's what the pins for the connectors would fit. At the same time, I installed dual Interstate Group 27 "Workaholic" batteries, with a solenoid between them. The solenoid is energized from the Accessory feed (de-energized during cranking). The winch is powered from the 2nd battery. Later, I fabricated a set of jumper cables from 1/0. The cables have a connector on one end that will plug into the 175A connector... I can jump-start someone from either end of my truck.

When the truck is parked and the ignition is switched off, the batteries are isolated from each other preventing the vehicle battery from being discharged from electrical usage in the trailer. i.e., the relay is not energized, there is no direct positive cable connection between the two batteries. > Two batteries in parallel isn't the best setup either.

The only time the two batteries are connected together is when the tow vehicle's engine is running via the now energized isolation relay, if the engine is running, the circuit voltage to both batteries is higher that the static open circuit voltage of the batteries, the batteries are now being charged, there is no "weaker" battery. Differences in internal resistance between the two batteries will cause the battery with lower resistance to draw more current, but that is the only difference. > This may not > matter much with a popup camping trailer that sees only occasional use, > but is a poor design when two or more batteries are always tied together.

Um, no, better not be. So then, you have the batteries connected while cranking, and Al has them isolated at the same time. Are you both talking about the same circuit?

Then > you'd get upset. Is that what you want Beryl? I offered an explanation as to why your deductions were in error. Apparently, it upsets you that you were wrong and that I know more about the subject than you. I'll make it real simple. (assume you have at least seven fingers and/or toes left) There are seven output circuits from the ignition switch on a 2002 Dodge Dakota; Circuit #2 is hot in the run and start position. Circuit #3 is hot in the run and start position Circuit #7 is hot in the run position only Circuit #8 is hot in the run position only Circuit #9 is hot in the run position and the accessory position Circuit #10 is hot in the run position and the accessory position Circuit #13 is hot in the start position only From the above factory information, it is easy to see that it is possible to tap into two of these circuits to trigger an auxiliary battery isolation relay so that the relay would -only- be energized when the ignition switch is in the engine running position, the relay would -not- be energized during engine crank and the relay would not be energized if the ignition switch were in the accessory position. If I were wiring this relay for a customer, I would not wire it as Big Al suggested, not because his way wouldn't work but because his way leaves an error mode that the customer may not realize resulting in a drained vehicle battery. IOWs, because of certain people who can't fathom how a battery isolation circuit works, things have to be made as idiot proof as possible. Now, feel free to call me any name that you choose; Nell, Nellybell, Bob and Neil, Aardvark, punkin, sweetcheeks, hermaphrodite, etc. because after all, there is nothing wrong with one more confirmation from you of what type of person you really are. FYI, if there was even the slightest chance that anything you say could "upset" me, why would I bother explaining your error to you? Or say thank you for giving you a bit of free education. >>We can argue if you like, Neil, but I might end up naming you Nell. Then >>you'd get upset.

Because your original ignorant belief was that the way Big Al had connected the isolation relay would only provide battery isolation during cranking. You claimed; > The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though. > The danger there is being stuck at camp with two dead batteries. Aside from older Volkswagens, do you know of any vehicles where the radio is allowed to be powered when the ignition is switched off which is the typical state when a vehicle is parked? That certainly isn't the way an 02 Dakota is wired. So, to answer your question bberryll; Because you just couldn't think your way thru the obvious there bberryll. Big Al's way would isolate the batteries contrary to your erroneous conclusion. You *might* have been correct if you had qualified your claim with 'parked and listing to the tow vehicle's radio.' But you didn't, which makes you not all that clever. Simply put; (why do I keep having to do this for you?) you were more wrong than Big Al was. > > Or say thank you for giving you a bit of free education. > > That was dazzling, NELL.

I'll help you with this, NELL. Your inability to think beyond an ignition switch is the cause of your error. If there's no suitably switched power source for a relay trigger in there, or anywhere else on a vehicle for that matter, I guess you're just stuck. Here's a trick, NELL: Grab your prototyping breadboard and a handful of transistors and build your very own logic sub-circuit entirely from scratch. You can have a circuit that functions exactly the way you'd like it to, regardless of what relay inputs already are, or are not, available in the stock vehicle. You won't even be limited to calling battery "A" the vehicle battery and battery "B" the house battery. Either, or both, can serve either purpose at any time, and even change roles on-the-fly as necessary. It's magic! >>>Or say thank you for giving you a bit of free education. >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Feel free to save it somewhere, maybe you can pass it on to It's a keeper for sure, NELL.

He asked whether the alternator could handle the extra load, then Al suggested an isolation relay with a rather left hand description of what it would do for mowingly, you then stuck your foot in your mouth claiming that the relay wouldn't isolate the two batteries when parked. =========== (exact quote from beryl) "The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though.

This is real funny, and I mean *REAL* funny! I just went back to check the dates between my reply to AL and the time you asked about any advantage of one way over the other, and I found this... "The only time the two batteries are connected together is when the tow vehicle's engine is running via the now energized isolation relay," -and- "the only time they are tied together is when the engine is running and they are being charged." That was YOU, stupid a.s idiot! You wrote that 2 days after my reply to AL, then it was another day before you finally figured out that simply turning the key to Acc. would connect the batteries! > instead of babbling on about According to you, there is no circuit. > and "now You're still lying about that, NELL?

There should be plenty of posts authored by me archived in Google regarding battery isolators where I recommend using a relay to isolate auxiliary batteries. I generally recommend a NAPA ST-85 relay because I know it's up to the task. The last time it came up was within the last year, the OP opted for a different part number relay because he didn't like the price of the ST-85. Google further, (like back 11 years) you'll find where I describe how to install an external voltage regulator on ChryCo vehicles to bypass a non functioning PCM style voltage regulator, saving having to replace an expensive PCM. I hate to be the bearer of bad news Sheryl, but I'm extremely good at automotive electrical. Your accusations are laughable at best. Matter of fact, considering that I spend most of my working hours repairing driveability problems, SCI/PCI/CCD buss problems, IM-240 emissions failures and the like, I'm surprised that I even involved myself in such a basic discussion to begin with.

Those are YOUR words between the quotation marks, proof positive that you didn't have a clue. Then you tried to cover with the "CD music over dinner" bullshit,more proof that you didn't have a clue.

Clues, NELL: Al says connect the relay to the radio. I say that won't isolate the batteries while parked. NELL says "The only time the two batteries are connected together is when the tow vehicle's engine is running via the now energized isolation relay," -and- "the only time they are tied together is when the engine is running and they are being charged." And it was all the same circuit to you, "this circuit", even though I'd been telling you that Al's was different than yours. What an idiot. SignatureThis explains it ALL!!! He was home schooled and his mommy made his GES diploma for him out of needle point, to go with his pin head and needle dick. :) -- punkin > > This "three more days" bullshit is off by about 30+ years. > > You maybe had been taught 30 years ago, but you still don't know it > without having reminders.

Your accusations are laughable at [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > knew the radio won't play when the key is turned off. Everybody knows > the radio doesn't work when the key is turned off. Another red herring. You declared that "The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though. The danger there is being stuck at camp with two dead batteries." Nice try, you lie. Radio won't play with the key off is one thing, "The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though. The danger there is being stuck at camp with two dead batteries" is another thing. The more you claim such nonsense, the stupider you look. > > best.

So? When I called you "thick skulled" (an observation) you claimed I was name calling. So, your weak tactics which you claim are "accusations" are somehow valid but anyone else's observations about you are foul play. You're a weak tit. > And it's not getting old yet, NELL, you're only the second to be caught. > You're in the punkin club now. "The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though.

The danger there is being stuck at camp with two dead batteries." This isn't 'at home with mommy and daddy' Sheryl, repeating the lie over and over won't make it true, no matter how much you wish it to. > > Those are YOUR words between the quotation marks, proof positive that > > you didn't have a clue. [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > I say that won't isolate the batteries while parked. It won't if you're stupid enough to sit there with the key in the accessory position. but then, that's not my definition of "parked." I'm sure if Big Al had realized that you are as stupid as you've now proven to be, he would have gladly issued a warning/disclaimer with his post, which all reinforces the one thing you have managed to get right, "this shouldn't be a kindergarten group." > NELL says > "The only time the two batteries are connected [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > And it was all the same circuit to you, "this circuit", even though I'd > been telling you that Al's was different than yours. What an idiot. Indeed, only an idiot would declare; "The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though. The danger there is being stuck at camp with two dead batteries," sez Sheryl. Okay, how does one cause such an occurrence to happen? Well, if you leave the radio playing, both batteries will go dead, sez Sheryl. Yup, if you wire it the way Big Al describes, the batteries will go dead. Then again, even with no trailer, no isolation relay, no campground at Brokeback Mountain... If you leave the radio playing, the battery goes dead anyway ya moron. You're out in the wilderness, don't waste the battery! DUH! You know, as the self appointed "counter punk." you're a bit of a disappointment. You're just a two bit, weaseling liar who can't admit when she's goofed. You HAVE to be a relative of Snofraud. NELL: >>> This "three more days" bullshit is off by about 30+ years. >> [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > You have yet to admit to yours. Okay, NELL. Here goes: My mistake was in not seeing an ambush coming, I gave Al too hasty a reply. You read Al's post, you read my post, you had all the time you wanted to prepare. >> after you'd already written "the only time they are tied together >> is when the engine is running and they are being charged." > > You would have a point if it weren't for the fact that you're using > that statement out of context. I'll put your statement where it fits chronologically. Big Al, 5/16 "You need to isolate the trailer battery while the truck is cranking... You can use a relay connected to the radio feed" Beryl, 5/17 "The cranking relay won't isolate the two batteries while parked though." NELL, 5/19 "Apparently you don't understand the function of the relay in this circuit or how it works." "the only time they are tied together is when the engine is running and they are being charged." I can hardly begin to sort out your 'contexts' and put them in readable form here, NELL, they're a mess. But you were still thinking "this circuit". As you wrote, "the function of the relay in this ci |
