It probably is a bad module. if it is causing problems, disconnect the module and install a new unit.

You know the saying if it ain't broken...


So, what exactly is broken in your post? I don't quite know and understand what it is.

12v+ PURPLE / red 15amp shold be ran to the battery

starter+  blue/white

just pull the fuses on the 12awg red wires, before ya go cutting wires.... that'll kill any power to the unit....
