Fuses and battery under seat

[T6 CFO]

Can't remember reading about accessing these. Especially the fuses. Had a quick look and see there is a bolt to undo once plastic trim behind seat is removed. I presume it's just a case of going for it as there doesn't appear to be anything in the manual. Well not in mine anyway.

Am I missing something. Struggling to access fuses in dash as well. Presume I'm just being a bit delicate with the panel that needs removing. As I don't have to get in there and just inquisitive I shall probably be nagging someone at the Brean meet where I hop to make a visit.

Not sure what you mean about under the seat, but the middle ones are behind the bottle holder, I know of none others. Open the bottle holder front, feel for two clips and pinch together the whole thing comes out as one and behind are fuses. Or have I misread

Thanks I'll have a look.

Sure I read somewhere there were more under the seat. Fuse for pump for tap in sink springs to mind.

Most if not all the habitation fuses are under the l/h seat.
Access by sliding the passenger fully back, not easy to get at but doable.

Yes it is.

I wanted to take the tap fuse out as that is included in the official way to drain the tank. I quickly gave it up as an awkward task and simply opened the drain valve, took off the filler cap and let it drain out. Then just ran the tap for a couple of seconds to ensure the tank and pipe work was dry. No need to touch the fuse.

Is this any use.

swivel the seat 1/4 and slide it until you have better acces ....

Thanks all I will have a play. I was surprised there was mention of the fuses under the left hand seat and then no instructions on how to access them.

The ones behind the botlle holder , you open the botlle holder and sqeeze the two plastic things thogether and pull the botlleholder out.
I have a post with pictures somewhere on the forum ...try and look it up later , just home from work.

To drain the tap without running the pump dry - In Right Kitchen cupboard - remove cutlery draw and feel up alongside the Right/Rear of the sink. There is a plug/socket connection. Undo and tap can be opened, to allow drain back, without running the pump dry.

Cracked it HC.

Also the one under the LH Seat.
Swivelled seat, 1/4 turn and slide towards rear.

Happy now. Would feel daft not knowing how to access if I had a problem.
Next trick is identifying them.

Thanks for that WG . I thought there must be an accessible connection somewhere, that will save further investigation by me.

How Can I get access to the download section? I am a new member and are looking for a fuse diagram before a trip to Marocco.
