What fuse rating? - charging from 240V

Post by Trilobyte_simon »

Hi folks,

The transformer (beneath the seat) - am i right in saying that it charges the leisure battery when the vehicle is connected to 240V Mains electricity?

I've taken the casing off, and there is an obvious place where a fuse should be (to the right of the transformer coil)

What rating should it be?

Thanks

Mini glass fuse.....seem to remember it having a 2 amp rating.
BBB (buzzing black box) original Westie? charges both starter and leisure batteries when on mains.

Isn't it marked on the circuit board? - modern electronics do have it so.
