    Mechanically challenged Newbie here. I removed my battery for the 1st time on my 2010 T100 so I could install new Optimate 3 battery connectors and charge up the battery. There is a ground wire (blue marking) to the positive. Before, reconnect the battery was curious if this is normal? Thanks in advance. Photos attached.

    That looks to me like it could be the main cable to the starter solenoid and the other wire with the red collar has been added later as it goes through an inline fuse holder.

    Presumably the one with the inline fuse is the Optimate lead. You want to clean that corrosion off before you refit :confused:
