I have a 96 Coromal Apollo 400 which didn't come with a house 12v battery but somewhere along the line of ownership someone has added one.

I am not particularly electronic savy but my question today is, if that battery went flat or say down to 9v would it affect the electric brakes, indicators etc., when hooked up and running with the car. If so, is this type of set up normal when adding a battery to the van or has it been done by a 'backyarder/DIYer'?
Or should the power from the car suffice to run these things. I know the battery is being charged by the car's alternator but does a flat van battery throw a spanner in the works?

I am charging this battery as I write this and hopefully this will correct my problems but just interested in your comments.

many thanks,
Wayne
