I decided if I am getting rid of my Aux Battery I should get ride of the PCR and all the wiring too. Well I was at it, I installed the Genesis stock battery relocation box. It is much clearer looking now.

I have read multiple threads on the Aux Battery Delete before and they were a little confusing with disconnect this wire, tape it up, move this wire, pull this .... If I get rid of the battery there is no need to leave the wires and PCR there.

It is really simple to take the old wires out, retape the harness with factory tape and make a jumper from the old factory wiring. Here are the pictures...

Looks good, jumper between 1 and 3 it looks like. the tray is the same as my dual battery one just a different clamp for one battery, nice job.!
I think people worry about putting wires in wrong spot but the cutouts in the lugs match the slots in fuse block, you would have to work real hard to mix them up, but then again there are some really "talented" people out there!....Jack

I jump 3 to 1 for now. But I am going to make a flat plate Jumper from 2 to 1 like the one that comes on the eTorque Jeeps ..

Yeah, but I'm not sure about tying direct to N2 main battery input to bus, N3 is fused ,jumper then takes it to the electronics, everything else is fused, the E Torque might not have the same wiring in the fuse block. I don't see the benefit and do see a concern....Jack

The fuse block it the same for eTorque and non eTorque. I am not sure why everyone thinks N1 needs to be connected to N3, it does not. N1 is connected directly to the battery in eTorque jeeps.

Even in non eTorque Jeeps, N1 is connected directly to the Aux...

Pretty much what you did, except I took the PCR out. I got the idea from you ...
