Jerry, After reading posts from guys like yourself I feel like a total idiot. I am a self trained shade mechanic and don't know squat about electrical. I always shy'd away from learning about it because it seemed too complicated. I favored wrenches. Anyway, I was in HF one day and picked up a little volt meter, or such, they had on sale and have it in my tool box. I wouldn't even know know how to go about checking the voltage drop you talked about although I'm willing to try. I think I've repaired or replaced all the obvious cables and grounds on the truck, so don't know there's anything else I could fix, but if you think checking all the connections with the volt meter is a good idea I'll learn how to do it. Like I said, I think the battery is beginning to show it's age and should be replaced.
