Reply With QuoteIt's very possible that you could be showing 12 volts if the number two battery is bad. Basically you have a broken chain. Therefore, you would have 12 volts coming in from positive and 12 volts going out to the negative on the other battery.

36 volt battery system
Querstion. If the number 2 battery is bad, how many volts will me meter show?
I've been having TM problems. It won't even turn on when I lower it.
Yesterday, when I hooked up the volt meter to the wires, it only showed a little over 12 volts. One thing that has been going on is when I hook up my charger, after about 20-30 minutes, the number 2 battery at the charger is having a blinking red light. That's usually either a bad battery or the charger bank has gone bad if I read the book correctly.
I'm pretty sure I did the volt meter right. I turned it around twice and set it to 50 which it said go to the next one higher than what should be coming through.

Put a different set of charger leads that you know is working right on the battery that you think is bad. That will let you know if it's the battery or the charger that is bad.
Also put the questionable set of leads on a good battery to see if it works correctly.

That should have no effect on the batteries. If it did, I'd open a battery shop at every marina on the coast!!! ;-)Originally Posted by DonDon
