This suggestion won't help you now, but it will help others....many who already subscribe to the theory:
Before you remove batteries, put a piece of red tape on the ends of all positive cables and WIRES. Then take a few digital pictures of the setup before you ever remove a wire or cable.
I followed my own advice when I last changed my 4 - 6 volt batteries and got everything back together and somehow one large cable got tucked away out of site and not reconnected. My alternator didn't charge and I lost power to several 12 volt items. Looked at the picture and compared it to how I had things hooked up and saw that that cable was missing.
