Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!

Fuse was not in place - two fuses were in their apparent storage locations on the top of the battery - I thought thats where they were supposed to be

I did RTFM - again since I saw your response and did not see any directions regarding setting up the the fuse
It only mentioned to take out the fuse when traveling

Once again my gratitude

Best

If it makes you feel any better, I nearly did the same thing.

Jay, I did exactly the same thing. Thought both batteries were defective and then realized tab A needed to go into slot B.

I did this with a Ranger once. Usually I test things to see if they are powering on first, then charge.

I already had the Ranger so I knew to expect a fuse on the Quadra. I can't remember if I may of had problems with my Ranger at first though
