T25 leisure Battery
Advice Please:
My T25 leisure battery is dead. Well actually I've had the battery out and recharged it but still no use. No water pump gauge or internal lights or anything that runs off the battery is working. What might be causing this? Could it be a fuse?
Any thoughts welcomed
Thanks

Have tested the battery voltage after recharging? It could be its died.

[size=100][font=Calibri,sans-serif]Thanks for replying. I've tested the battery and it's fine. Having had a poke around I found this disconnected Blue cable under the passenger seat - Any thoughts on what this is and if it might be the problem?

Re: T25 leisure Battery
Thanks All - So this is the cable that I have found underneath the passenger seat. Should this be connected or is this redundant?
Regarding Fuses - any advice on which fuse I could investigate?

Best thing to do is trace where the other end is.

Re: T25 leisure Battery
it goes towards the front of the van by the steering column. So I'm thinking isn't to do with the leisure battery? Where would I find the fuse for the Leisure battery - is it with the other fuses in the glove compartment?
Thanks
Thanks

Your fuse is on the right of the pic!
That spare wire could be for the radio so that it doesn't drain the starter battery.

Re: T25 leisure Battery
Thanks for all the help here. The radio does actually drain the starter battery - where should that cable be terminated?
Is the fuse therfore the pink thing? (sorry!)

Depends on the radio. Check the radio connector diagram. Usually there is a sticker on the radio itself.
Memory feed should be connected to battery positive, power feed to key in or ingition on positive

Re: T25 leisure Battery
Where on the back of the fuse box multi plugs could you connect 1 wire from the leisure battery fuse box to run interior light,stereo and cig lighter?

Re: T25 leisure Battery
Easiest way , if you have the new blade fuses is to use one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164847231745
In the fuse 3 position .
