Hi
I'm an absolute begineer and have never used a motorhome before. I'm 57 and the motorbike is less comfortable than it used to be so the plan is to try out the more comfortable motorhome for a while.
I just took ownership of a 2005 Tribute. The leisure battery is under the front passenger seat and I was told by the previous owner that it is totally dead and needs to be replaced. I took all the side panels off but the battery is too big to slide out.
I've come to the conclusion that the whole passenger seat needs to be removed from the cab so that battery can be removed from above. Can anyone confirm if my assessment is correct? I can see anything about it in the manuals. Some of the nuts are at the base of fairly long bolts and I don't have the right length of socket to get at them. I don't want to buy any special tools if there's an easy way to do this that I can't yet see.
Thanks
Steve
