Battery relocation problem. please insert image of yours

Please insert image of battery relocated in engine bay.
Thanks!

Right now my car does not charge when i connect these cables, when i remove one, then it starts charging, but revs at idle, tried to fix at autoservice, but they left confused, they don't have experience with e30. I need someone experienced who did battery relocation or had same issue to show me image of example and guide me.
I would love to solve this fast, i can pay 10$ in paypal for guidance, i think these cables don't need connected straight to the battery.
Thanks for everyone who will try to help, please insert image,
i can pay for this, thank you.

At a quick glance, it would appear that maybe the green-yellow wire isn't making a good contact, since it is (a) somewhat frayed and oxidised-looking (clean with emery paper) and (b) the insulation seems to be trapped under the nut.

Ideally, you would want to strip back a section of the insulation to reveal clean copper wire, then fit a suitable crimp terminal (or soldered if you prefer).

As for the blue wire, there doesn't appear to be a matching male Lucar terminal for it to plug onto, so maybe it's not supposed to fit there...


To get a steady idle following any interruption of the battery supply, you really need to let the car idle for at least 10 minutes to enable base idle settings to be learnt.

Maybe the Zone Wiki guide may be of some help:
