    Lol... Too late, but I think I found my problem.... The buss bar (at least that's what I think it is) is not making full contact with the main 120amp fuse...cause I'm thinking there should be a bolt here....2252018193014.jpg

    When I put pressure on it I get my full 12.5... I let off... I get 3.5

    I was just in the mindset of checking blown fuses then... I hadn't progressed into searching for hobgoblins under magic rocks yet
