Hi All,
We just took delivery of our new California beach last week but have been having problems finding out about the leisure battery.
The manual states that no sockets or lights can be used with the ignition switched off which doesn't seem right. I have called the branch of VW up where I brought the vehicle but they were not sure as to whether the leisure battery actually cuts off before using power from the main vehicle battery.
Since taking delivery of the van we have had 2 flat batteries where I have had to call RAC out, the latest being in the middle of our first camping trip! I am only using the sockets behind the front 2 seats and briefly the parking heater which apparently uses minimal electricity.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Great forum btw, was a big help when choosing the optional extras.
Thanks
Jason
