New to MIG

[linkmuffie]

Hi new here I already have a problem I did some welding to truck two days ago, and forgot to disconnect batteries, today I tried to start truck & batteries are completely flat. Could this have been caused by my MIG welding? Lin

It's more likely to damage the alternator. How long has it been stood ? The batteries probably just went down over time, jump start it and see if they recharge. Hi !

Thanks I jump it today with the umbilical jump cord. Its a military vehicle. I have two
Alvis Stalwarts 6 wheel amphibious trucks, one needed alot of welding, its has to be watertight. They come with a jump lead that goes between two vehicles. Lin

Greetings: a Stalwart might come in handy if the bloody weather continues like it is...
