Ok everyone thanks for your input. Car originally had two 6 volt Optima batteries hooked in parallel I changed them out for a regular 6 volt battery to see if that made a difference which it didn’t. Still getting hot so that I can’t leave my fingers on it for longer than 5 seconds. Is that too hot?? Or normal??
