High Charging Rate. Found Voltage Drop Need Guidance Please

Your sketch pretty much nailed it. The only change was the addition of E1 (ECU) and RL1 replacing J2 at the ballast. J2 now just triggers the Relay. Anyway duty called (wife). I did bench check the ballast and it measured .8 Ohms. I'll get back to it tomorrow. Thanks much.

Just a quick note to close this thread off. Got the relay setup working. Car is running well. Battery is charging at a steady 14.4! Back on the road! Happy days!

Many thanks to @Mattax and @67Dart273 for your guidance, help and patience!!! You guys exemplify what FABO is all about.
