Connect the large red clamp
(+) to the disconnected ring
from the S-terminal magnetic
circuit. Connect the large
black clamp (-) to the starter
ground (See Illustration)
Connect the small red lead (+) to
the “B” terminal (+) of the starter
solenoid. Attach the small black
lead (-) to the starter ground (See
Illustration - small clamp position 1).
Reconnect the negative terminal
on the battery. Then energize the
Magnetic Switch for 3-5 seconds.
Note. This can be done by a remote
starter or by a second person
turning the ignition.
Wait for results.
If voltage drop is within
specications the whole
circuit passes.
If the test FAILED! the BVA-2100
will advance to the next menu.
Failure is indicated by more than 1
Volt drop at 80 Amps.
Move the small red lead to
the magnetic switch hot side
connection from the battery, press
enter and energize the switch again
for 3-5 seconds (See Illustration -
small clamp position 2).

Connect large leads to the starter.
STARTING VDROP (Cont.)
Note: The circuit from the battery to the starter junction
and to each battery bank is being tested. If a dual battery
bank is used the menu instructions will differ than with a
single battery bank. In the following sequence it will be
assumed that the choice is a dual battery bank.
Then connect small leads to the bat-
tery bank – the red on the positive
main and the black on the negative
main and not to an individual bat-
tery. The added small external leads
will check the main cables. Press (Y
Enter).
The results will vary depending
upon and the conditions of the
cables. Both the positive and
negative circuit results will be
indicated from the single test. If
the test does not pass, correct
the connection or replace the
cable and run the test again.
VDROP ERROR MESSAGES See page 17
Just as the System Test checks the Magnetic Circuit rst it also checks
the main starting cables.
If all connections are correct, wait
for a load test to be performed.
