Hi
Can anybody help to locate the Split Charge Relay and fuse going from it to the Leisure batteries in Autotrail Delaware 2012?
Our leisure batteries are not getting charge from the running engine.
Many Thanks.

The alternator is OK charging the starter battery but not the Leisure batteries.

If it has a conventional split charge it will probably be near the starter battery... Maybe on the bulkhead and next to the fridge relay.
When you find them, if you don't have a meter, swap them over to confirm it's the relay at fault.

It's not a standalone relay, inbuilt in to the Sargent control unit/charger. The fuse should be in the interface unit on the floor behind the drivers seat.

Thanks Dave ( you fitted my two refillable Gas bottles at Peterborough show few years ago), I forgot about the fuse box behind the driver sit, going to check now.

Thanks Dave, I checked the Vehicle battery fuse behind driver sit and it is good, any thoughts what can be wrong that the leisure batteries not getting charge when engine is running? ( starter battery is getting charge, leisure batteries getting charge from solar panels & hookup)

If the main battery fuses are ok then it could be the D+ fuse which is in the same interface behind drivers seat if my memory serves me correctly. You can download a wiring schematic from Sargent website which should help you, alternatively you need to book into a workshop that is conversant with Sargent systems.
