battery charger

[hueyhoolihan]

i often wonder if there's a color (only two colors would be necessary) coded diagram somewhere on the net of everything that is actually attached permanently to the positive terminal and negative terminals of the battery. it would give a true impression of where current is available at all times even with the ignition turned off.

it would show the entire engine, transmission, frame, body panels and elements of the dashboard and a pole on the battery. and a much smaller part of the car, like the lights and gauges that run to ground, as part of the other pole.

it would then be much easier to visualze and answer these types of questions, i think.

anyway...

if a charger is disconnected from it's power source i can't imagine where battery current would would go.
