A method of controlling a multiple battery system in a vehicle electrical system is provided. The method steps include polling an at least one sensor in the multiple battery system monitoring the multiple battery system for an at least one reading and detecting an abnormal reading from said at least one sensor. And then communicating the results of said detection step to an operator or a Network Operations Center switching, upon a command from the operator, the Network Operations Center or a controller switching an at least one switch from a first of an at least two operating positions engaging a main battery to a second of an at least two operating positions engaging an at least one auxiliary battery.
