Coach Batteries

Hello Everyone:

Just a question about replacing coach batteries. We have a 40 ft DP Tiffen Phaeton (2006) and need to replace one of our 4 6volt coach batteries. Can we replace just the one or do we need to replace all four?

Thanks, Rick and Vikki

    A bank of batteries will be only as good as the worst one of the bunch

    Can you? Yes. Should you NO. If one is bad the others will soon follow also the batteries will all mimic the weakest one. Bite the bullet and replace them all.
