Help, we cannot find one of the batteries in our Frankia

[Gina M]

We have found the hab one on the passenger seat floor but cannot find the other. Does anyone out there have the same van? Frankia i740

What base vehicle, if it's a fiat and you mean the engine battery its under the floor in the cab just about central.

Google says that's the hab battery and yes it's a fiat.

I would say the cab battery in a fiat is under the front passenger’s feet in a right hand drive van

 

[Abacist]

I don’t know about Frankias but hab batteries can be under the front seats, under the floor, in the bottom of cupboards, in an external locker or in the garage.

If it’s like ours, Lift the “shoe box” cover by the door. They are to the left of that under the floor looking in from the door.

No fiat engine batteries are under the floor in the cab area.

Found it, the leisure battery is in the garage and the smell is only coming from there now. Engine battery looks ok so far, only 2 years old. Leisure battery is 7 years old.

If the vans a keeper the difference is negligible in the long run
