Bob,
Measure the voltage again. But this time do NOT connect the black lead of the
handheld meter to ground. Instead, connect the meter black lead to the
contactor stud on the load side. And connect the red lead to the contactor stud
on the battery side. Connect meter leads directly to the contactor studs, not
to
the nuts or wire terminals. Turn on every electrical load possible and add extra
loads that make heat like a seat heater or automotive headlight.
