Curiosity had me look for solenoids. Found them see pix. Coach batteries on one side, engine on other, lower metal solenoid. Jumps to 14 with engine running.

Metal solenoid runs hot while parked, no engine, ac/DC charger on house batteries is on. House batteries 13.5, engine at around 12.7. Any comments on what these guys do and heat issue?Attachment 179310
Thanks to all. Replaced solenoid, all is good and works as designed.[emoji2]
