OK cool thanks! I probably won't do this until the center stack stuff gets done, like in the spring. I learned about how old plastic doesn't like colder weather that much.

Twenty something years ago I bought a Craftsman charger. It lasted about a year and the transformer in it crapped out. Since then I've bought two similar chargers at yard sales. They both have a 2a low setting. That's my preferred trickle charger.

I did have the Harbor Freight floating charger/battery maintainer. It lasted about a month. I would love to have about half a dozen small floating chargers to refresh whatever junk batteries I have on hand, but the HFs aren't up to the challenge.

If I have batt fuse in and ign 1 fuse pulled alarm goes off but I can turn it off for only a min or 2 then it goes off again

The issue I'm facing is the alarm goes off when the batt fuse is pulled and cant turn it off til the fuse is back in. Would I plug it with a jumper then perform the test? Or just hook it up?

If you can connect the (switched on) MM across the fuse holder terminals before pulling the fuse then the MM should conduct enough to stop your alarm from tripping. This will probably be easier from the other side of the fuse board but it lifts out quite easily. Croc clips will help also.
You can then disconnect components downstream from the fuse and watch for a change of reading on the MM. I'd start with the IGN-1 fuse. Do you know which components it serves?

You mean the ign 1 fuse?

Yep.
But only because I suspect it is in series with the BATT fuse. If they are in series it shouldn't matter much which one you pull. I'm guessing they are in series because pulling either triggers the alarm.
