Electrical problems

[Moggonzales]

My leisure battery on compass avantgarde was running down quickly. Charged it up and found a blown fuse for ‘car’ which I replaced. Now nothing works in the interior. All the fuses are OK so I have no idea where to start searching for the problem. The ignition button on the cooker stopped working - I thought it might have blown something but now it’s ok- I have no idea where to start.

If nothing works in the interior, I'd be looking at the supply from the leisure battery to the distribution box first. Is this vehicle new to you, so that maybe there's a switch or fuse that you don't know about yet?

It would be a good idea to get a multimeter, so you can test various voltages. Start at the leisure battery, then see if the supply is reaching the input of the distribution box.

How long have you had the moho?
How old is it?

If you remove the fuse that had blown, do things return to working?
If yes, it is possible that it is to do with the system thinking that the engine is running, so turns off your hab power

That could make sense as our first van was an elddis and the hab went off if you turned on the ignition.

Also make sure you haven’t knocked the main 12v switch, ours was just as you came in the hab door.

Thanks for all your advice- it turned out to be something really simple. I turned the switch on the battery off and on a couple of times and everything came back to life!
