In this video, you can see how to fix the issue of the leisure battery not charging enough to power all the appliances in a Fiat Ducato camper. You will need a multimeter and a basic understanding of your camper's electrical system.

Open the hatch where the battery is located and check for continuity on the plate, and also test the various fuses until you find one that reads zero, then replace it. Now check the voltage of the leisure battery, which should be around 12 volts and increase when the engine is running.

This is a relatively simple repair.

Always keep some spare fuses on hand.
