*Searched* Alt not charging Reloc. Battery

Ok, I've got a Haltech E6K 1st off, Second. Relocated the battery to the passenger compartment. I have a NEW alternator on it. Scrapped off the paint where grounded. I ran 4 gauge wire and it still is discharging the battery. I'm stumped. Here are some pics if they help??

You did all of this at the same time? Is your alt not charging the battery? Or is the Haltech discharging the battery as if it's always on, even when it's off? Or both at the same time?

It's better to upgrade in stages to see what each mod does. I guess you could add a master switch whichi physically disconnects the battery from everything else. It could even be a bad cell.

I think i might have it figured out... maybe. I tried testing my battery today, and it needed to be charged. Tried it at work and ti spewed acid every where.... I bought a deep cycle, and am getting 12.06 @ the alt now. I'm keeping an eye on it and think i'm going to run more grounds via the engine/ chassis. Hope this works cause it makes her road worthy

12.06 is not enough
