But you need a special tool....not a biro top.
No you don't.
It might be easier with the tool but it's in no way essential to have one.

I havnt got a phone.. thats the point. It just rings out wherever it is hiding. Nobody can find it or any wiees.
YORICK ... you little tinker.... xx
Could it be a smart nav system Joy?At the risk of sounding loopy .. every few months a telephone rings in my mh .... comes from the speakers. No idea what it is and several funsters have failed to find it ... thank goodness they have been there when it happens. Someone said it might be a tracker but nobody can find it.
The phone is really loud and is like an office type ring. . Weird.
Don't know why I'm telling you this .. but it might help somebody in some strange way. X

Ah. Don't know. No built in sat nav. Thanks anyway.Could it be a smart nav system Joy?
I had it in my first motorhome. Never used it but it did 'ring' occasionally.
I Vic thought of that .. will have a look when I get home. The new Road Tax system may only show the dealer I bought from .. I won't get anywhere there.Hi Joy, have you contacted the previous owner?

Smart Nav is not a conventional satnav. It has no screen just a discreet button you push which connects you to an operator. You tell them where you want to go and they send you live, verbal instructions. The only two things I saw was a small button and a small speaker mounted behind the drivers seat.Ah. Don't know.

I spent an interesting 10 minutes at a stand at the BMF show a few years ago opening all their locks !!But you need a special tool....not a biro top.

Just possible a previous owner has hidden a mobile phone somewhere in your van Joy.
A phone can be used, with various apps, as a very basic tracker device.
Wired through a charger it will remain active until something breaks and the battery goes flat.
If so I suspect the random ringing could be a wrong number dialed....but that would be enough to keep the sim card active.

OK. Thats info I don't have. Perhaps you can point me to the video clip showing that. It may be useful when I lose the key.No you don't.

Good to talk about how good or not trackers are but what about Bigfoot's Hymer.
Should the tracker talk be in its own thread.

When you do perhaps you could let me know where it is so I can do the same. We both have the X290 chassis I believe.Now all I have to do is to find the blessed fuel cut off switch on my Ducato 2.3
Simple method that avoids any damage to van wiring is to replace the fuse with two male blades wired out to an in-line fuse & switch.@stevec I think I have located it, push button mechanical effort bolted into the passenger side (I believe) footwell, accessible from inside. (P68 of the manual)
I don't know (yet) if there any electrical connections to cut into (to be replaced with a switch)
To disable the fuel pump, in effect it would seem possible to switch F21 (15A) in the main (engine compartment) fuse box (according to P 165. However, Fiat are renowned for giving dodgy info on fuse layouts, so that needs to be checked. Trouble is this method is a bit messier than simply wiring a switch in series with the fuel cut off. Perhaps other Funsters may have a few ideas??
I won't be able to dig around for a few days, and will post up any result. Would be helpful if you get a chance before I do, for you to do the same

Yes , I know he mentioned his tracker but out of the 12 pages , how many actually are about the motorhome theft and hopefully return.Bigfoot mentioned his tracker in his 2nd post

I'm sure people taking about how good or not security devices are , won't help Bigfoot.
