When I was testing it, yes. Everything done was with the B2- disconnected. Currently everything is back to pretest configuration.

I mean was b2- disconnected while you ran the truck? Never mind you answered me.

Can you charge and test B2? If not. For now pull all negative wires from b2 and ground them. Run 16 gauge with 20 amp fuse to unused solenoid post. Do your lights etc work with toggle. If no jumper wire big post 1 to big post 2 for now.We can go further when you get Bat2 tested or replaced. But this will get all bat2 items working so we can find other issues.

Toggling the solenoid made no difference. Everything worked with it toggled off, or toggled on.

Was this with B1 connected to unused terminal on the isolator?

Yes

Remove the trigger wire from the isolator,if everything still stays on toggle on or off,then the isolator is shot. Hook up like# 33 for now no jumper wire needed. If and when you have a good battery in spot #2 I'll get you a relay number and walk you through wiring it up. Should cost about 10.00. But then you will have a separate charged battery,no need fir a solar charger.
