Our motorhome is on the Fiat Ducato 3.0.
Today it would not start. On the control panel it has always shown vehicle battery 12.1v good, (RAC said this should be no lower than 12.4 to start an engine) leisure battery13.7 good. How ever I tried to start but no go,tried to jump start no go.
So I called the breakdown service (RAC). After doing all the things I had already done, he gave it an extra boost and it started.After letting it tick over for about 30 mins tried to start with out boost no luck,back on boost started. then checking the battery charge showed before the fuse charging 14v after fuse no charge. He replaced the faulty one with a 250amp fuse now all seems good. The problem is the one he took out has CAL5 32v on it and he is not sure if this is too strong. I have check the handbook been searching online but cannot find any information or where to get replacements from. Im hoping someone has some knowledge of this system.
For the record Leisure battery showing 13.7v Vehicle battery showing 12.7v good.
