Due to lack of space I have moved my battery into the garage so I can get another battery next to it. I have two battery's now in the garage joined together. Everything in the van works fine but the fridge will not auto change over it will manually. If I put the battery back in the original position the fridge will auto change..Any ideas why it's not auto changing over?

Check the fridge control circuit fuse
If you moved the batteries how did you extend the wiring? Might be a volt drop problem due to distance and cable size

The cable is 25mm2 as its 4 meters from original position to the garage.

If I select manually electric, gas and 12v will work. If I put it on auto even thou it's plugged into electric it always goes to the battery symbol

Then it sounds like the 230v feed to the fridge has failed hence it will select the next option which without the engine running will be gas

Well it only leaves the control circuit fuse as said in original post.

In the 12 volt distribution unit. What panel do you have?

There will be 2 fuses
1 for the 12 volt element via a split charge relay
1 for the fridge control circuit (AES fridges only) 3 or 5 amp perhaps and possibly protecting more that just the fridge circuit

You do know that on AES if you just stopped the engine it won't light the gas for 15 to 20 minutes?
