Thank you for the info video I'm a new boat owner and I was wondering about the battery switch and it's purpose now I do thank you. I just been running it a both 1 and 2
How do I know if I am always run on battery 1 if it’s charging both batteries? I don’t have the ACR or anything else like that. I do have a cable that is connected to both batteries so I believe it’s charging both when I am running on battery 1? It’s an 84 center console Aquasport. Probably not enough info. Thanks for help.
It could be used that way, but if your boats charger is a two bank unit and wired properly you should not need to do that to charge both battery banks.
Would need more information to troubleshoot that problem. It would be best to call a local tech to check it out. It sounds like the batteries may not be wired properly to the switch, or your batteries are too weak to start the engine without combining them both together. A marine electrician should be able to find the issue with some basic test equipment.

very good. Thank you
Would 1+ 2 position be used to have both battery banks charged via shore power converter/charger?

Boat will not start on 1or2 on battery switch but starts in the all position. Ground fault?
