AVA electrics

[Vish]

Hello, Can anybody help me please? I have an AVA side conversion and I recently replaced the leisure battery. Last night I checked the charge of the battery with a digital meter and it read 12.5V. This morning when I checked again, the reading was 4V.

I am trying to figure out why the battery is losing charge. My thought process is as follows:

1. Re- charge the battery.
2. Take out all the leisure fuses.
3. Put fuses back in one by one and whilst checking the digitla meter.

Only problem is I don't know what runs of each individual fuse. Does anybody have this information. Have rung AVA but they said the guy with the knowledge was not away until next week. Would like to start testing this weekend.

Thanks

Vishal

Can send information on fuses but I can't work the 'adding images' thing on the forum.
If you send your email address, I will send the pdf file.
Recently, I had similar need for a circuit diagram but there isn't one that I can find. So I traced all the cables and made my own circit diagram.
Again, I can't post it on the forum but would quite happily send it via an email if it would help.
Let me know.

When you take out the fuse, just put your meter in place of the fuse then you will see what current is being drawn by that circuit. The fuses normally associated with the L/B if the front fuse panel by the drivers knee has been switched are fuses 1,6,7,8 however there may well be more fuses else where associated with the actual conversion. If fuse 1 has been switched to the L/B then this is often the culprit as its the +12 volts (un switched) to the cabin lights, radio, central locking etc. Fuses 6 & 7 are the blinds and Fuse 8 is the Ancillary switched +12 volts which again is a frequent problem when moved to the L/B again this powers the radio, cigar sockets etc.
