About to replace 3 x 12 volt lead acid batteries in case but not sure how to safely do it.Please help. Do I negative then positive with push on connectors each battery or do I 3x negative then 3 x positive again with push on connectors.When do I connect 20 amp fuse in line.Hope this makes sense.Thanks for any advice.

They are connected up in series so;
BAT 1 -- to BAT 2 +
BAT 2 -- to BAT 3 +
BAT 1 + goes to +controller/red wire
BAT 3 -- goes to -- controller/black wire to complete the circuit.
Fuse on to red/+ line between BAT and controller.
