vehicle battery

Hello guys! I own a T6.1. I was wondering, that cigarette lighter socket in the front (next to the USB-C plug), it is connected to the engine battery or leisure battery? once my engine battery was dead but I was still able to charge my phone with that 12v plug, so I am confused... Thanks a...

Just had my claim for a new starter battery (AGM) turned down because the parasitic voltage was excessive and is caused by the installation of a leisure battery. This was before I told them that the fuse to the leisure battery was removed but they stuck to their story and wanted to charge £115...

As others have noted, these modern vehicles don't like not getting used! And the battery manages to discharge over a few weeks. Well, ours was utterly discharged having not been used for 3 weeks, and is now showing low voltage after only standing a week, and this after being charged and then a...

Had electrical issues on and off since buying my converted T6 MY 2017. Thought I had a parasitic drain as starter battery power draining over a couple of days of use Had an auto electrician come out - no parasitic drain, starter battery ok (new 4 months ago) alternator charging ok. It’s been...

Hi all, We have a 2018 T6 startline, converted to a camper. On Tuesday, 22nd, my partner drove it to pick up a turkey and returned no issues, she said it started fine and nothing seemed off. Yesterday, 26th, we went to use it to take the dog for a walk and it was completely dead. The key...

So I am swapping out the stock headunit on my t5.1 for a sony aftermarket one. I have mocked up the loom but needed a switched live (as many t5 owners will already know). I considering running a wire down to the fuse box, but decided to have a look behind the headlight switch. I found someone...

Great product range and exceptional customer service, just duff product in my case. Durite mini starter battery. (Speak to Sarah.);)

2018 T6, smart alternator. I have the message coming up on the dash at ignition on "Stop/start error", but with no faults showing with OBDeleven. Stop start was working fine up until I had a battery go flat a couple of times. S?S stopped working then, and hasn't worked even with the new batter...

This is what happened to me today. Dear Sir, I am absolutely furious. I was driving my T6 transporter today and it totally cut out on me at a set of busy traffic lights,Lodge causeway Bristol. After 10 minutes I managed to get someone to help me to push it to the side of the road. Everything...

Hi Can someone recommend a battery coding tool that doesn’t cost the earth!! Thanks Stu

Hi, my first post so be gentle haha. I have 2 lights on my dash a bulb and the abs symbol and now have ho hazards etc. I have checked all the bulbs and they are ok and all the fuses look ok. Any help would be appreciate

Hi, I've been having various problems with my starter battery over the past year and am not sure what to do next. The 2016 van was converted and a VSR was installed by the chap who did the conversion, which I've come to realise isn't suitable for a van with a Euro 6 engine. I replaced the...

So, the fun continues. I thought OBD11 would help with with my battery setup, but apparently not so much on an IOS device. Nevermind. This is the information I am able to get. Does this look ok for a 2016 T6 140PS stop/start? The battery installed is a Varta 80Ah, see picture. Any of these...

Hi all.. Hope someone may be able to shed some light on this one. So I am using an Victron 12-12-18a isolated DC to DC charger. This is how I have wired it : - Positive from starter battery to input positive on Victron - Negative from earth point under seat to negative input on Victron -...

So I have a Sterling DC to DC B2B charger and have bought an AMT 12-2 to keep the starter battery topped up (Leisure Battery topped up by separate solar). Is it as simple as connecting the AMT 12-2 to the connectors in the Sterling unit labelled 5, 4 and 3 or am I a clueless :rolleyes: AMT

Sorry if this has been answered before.. Is it possible to mount the above charger (or the 25a version) next to the main battery under the bonnet ?

So it was my understanding that the 250SA should charge the starter battery as well as the leisure battery when the leisure battery is full. Current demand on the leisure battery is dash cam on all the time, Wi-Fi modem and GSM module for my Webasto heater Right now the leisure battery is...

Hi, sorry to bother you. Come across a massive issue on our first trip. So..... I have dc dc charger, all working well. Sargent system, but only plugged into leisure battery. Didn't run any cables to starter battery at all... Yesterday was fine. Plugged into hook up and turned charger on...

Afternoon all. I’ve a battery monitor in place that’s showing ‘low cranking voltage’ from the starter battery. The battery itself is only 2 months old. Today I had a Start/Stop error. I’ve attached screenshots. Any help gratefully received
