On behalf of a friend..

On the level indicator it registers both cab and hab voltages but now it’s stopped working on the cab side, the battery is fine and showing good voltage.
I’ve checked all the fuses I can see and find, I haven’t taken the panel off, would there be one behind the panel..?
Habitation side works ok..

Any ideas anyone..?😎

There should be a wire from the starter battery to the distribution box, with a fuse at the battery end, very near the battery. That's the first thing I'd check. What is the make/model of the distribution/fusebox?

Edit: Is it just the meter that's not working on cab, or is it that nothing works when the switch is set to cab?

Everything work’s except the battery level for the cab, the level works for hab.
I can’t remember but I think the battery level works when the van is plugged in to EHU so that tells me it’s from the cab battery the connection is lost somewhere.. couldn’t find a fuse from battery for it.

I haven’t look behind the panel yet that’s why I wondered if anyone who may have this panel knows, I don’t have easy access to the van as it’s a friends parked at their house…😎

Next time you have a chance, can you find out which EBL model it is? Also, see if the fridge 12V works when the engine is running. I know that sounds a bit random, but the on most EBLs the cab battery voltage sensing is through the same wire that supplies the fridge 12V element power. If it doesn't, there's a separate 20A fuse near the battery for it. It's next to the big 50A fuse that supplies the split charge power from the starter battery.
