I think my starter battery is goosed, Hymer B504 2.3 Fiat has been stood a few weeks and will not start, tried to jump start it from my car but no joy so now plugged in to the EHU and also have a trickle charger on it. I have solar although only an 80watt panel and not much sunshine lately.
However I removed the covers etc to find the yellow 20a fuse at the top left blown anyone know what this fuse is for? I have changed it now and will leave it charging overnight see what tomorrow brings.

Probably the cable that feeds the fridge with 12v when the engine is running. This goes into the Elektrobloc via one connector block and out to the fridge via another block. A 20 amp fuse in this location is a normal fitting on Hymer vans with Elektroblocs. It is usually paired with the 50 amp fuse that protects the cable from starter battery to the back of the EBL. The 50 amp fuse is also visible in your picture.

Could well be though I'm sure I've seen the battery symbol on the fridge with the engine running. I also have these fuses next to the EBL101. battery looks to be charging now so I'll leave it until the morning.
