[DML] Re: Battery 2

Joe,

I stand corrected. Thank you for pointing this out to the list. It has
been a while since I performed the repair, but now I recall that I replaced
it with a new positive lead. The relevance of this is that if the brown
wires are to be replaced, it should be done with a properly insulated lead
having proper connections on each end, and NOT with a bare ground strap.
Sorry for any confusion, but I guess the bottom line is to just check all of
these high amp connections and make sure they are clean and in good shape.
