Hi,
Do you know which Ducato you have? Ther are several variations and of course year ranges and engine types. First place to look is the owners manual, did one come with the car? We have downloads on the forum of manuals for most of the cars, but not the commercials. You may be able to download it from the Fiat website.

We had a 2002 Autotrail Motorhome on the Ducato chassis 2.8 engine.
The main habitation fuses and relays for the split charging and fridge/freezer were behind the battery under the bonnet

In our MH there is a Power Supply Unit (PSU) that looks after the Hab' area, have you found yours.
Try Googling "Motor Home PSU" and have a look at the images.

Hi
there is a PDF version of the the X244 owners manual in the Ducato downloads section as well as a manual for the Blaupunkt CD radio that was originally fitted to the X244 models https://www.fiatforum.com/downloads.php?do=main&perpage=20&categoryid=22&page=2
You can also try the Fiat aftersale site for manuals. - http://aftersales.fiat.com/elum/Mod...8f3a&market_code=EN_EU&cat=lib&part_number=#1

Ah back again beer in hand. What have we right Ducato is a 2002 2.8 JTD facelift model, meaning its got a grill up front instead of well no grill at all. It came with a large wallet containing how fridge, cooker, heater, etc works and a Ducato booklet but wouldn't call it a manual.
Been working to stop water getting onto battery and sealing drain hose that goes down back of engine. Will post these picks up soon. Was this water getting onto battery a fault with these engine bays due to sealing of 2 galvanised covers above wiper motor. I thought these were wiper motor trays for holding motor.
As to Hab fuse+split charge relay looking for these too but there is a relay or summit on bulkhead near battery.
PSU well that might be what I'm looking for regarding no power up back but still to find.
Think the X244's etc are latter versions after JTD's.
In a habitation cupboard there is the main 240v/12v transformer and like a house fuse trip box.
Got a Panda as well but that's another story...
Thanks.

Hi goggs
I think you will find that the said manuals are applicable to your vehicle which is a "restyled" X244 "with grille", some on the forum who know more than I say the last X230 models had the JTD engines as well.
The second series body 94-06 (X230 & X244, the 230 had a different dash see attached pic) was restyled in February 2002, with the addition of rear and side bump mouldings and revised front grille as well as a new Dash.
The engine range was: 2.0 JTD, 2.3 JTD 16v and 2.8 JTD, 2.5 diesel was dropped (X244)
Officially the X244 went from 2002 to late 2006 replaced by the X250 then X290 which had "Multijet " 3.0 & 2.3 engines & in Europe there a 2.0 multi jet as well, not out here in OZ.
There seems to be a lot of crossovers between the 230 & early 244 with engines etc.
As you will find on the forum the X230 eLearn (WSM) & English versions of the 230 owner manual are extinct but the 244 eLearn is downloadable from the forum as well as said manuals.
From your Pics of the Dash it is a 244, maybe an early one with a mechanical speedo (a cable) & the old 3 pin diagnostic plug. The late 2002 to 06 had electronic speedos & the proper "D" OBD plug to the right of the steering column (RHD).

""Here's a link to split charging systems used on campers.

Its an interesting read.

You'll might make out which system you're camper uses.""

You could try a Motorhome Forum like...

They will want to know a bit more about your MH like name of Coachbuilder etc.

Hi this is my first post.

I own a 2001 Fiat Ducato 2.8 JTD, LHD Motorhome (Dethleffs), 130,000 km on the clock, had it since new.

My horn wasn't working and there was no power to the horn itself. After searching in the engine bay and in the cab and online, I finally located the vehicle fuse box.

In the case of my vehicle, it's under a black plastic cover in the glove compartment. You simply pull it towards you and voila, there are the fuses.

Fuse 12 was blown ........... horn fixed, now I can put the vehicle thru the inspection tomorrow.

Right ok, I am a contributor at Out and about live as I have a bit knowledge in common rail systems faults. But saying that I wanted to try the Fiat forum and give you's the chance on answers and you's have done well so far leading me to read a wee bit.
As too Sentech there's no fuse box in my glove box like my old 1992 Kontiki.
Lancepar has given me more reading even though I had idea on how split charge works, but it keeps coming up on M/home forums and it down to this, what does yours look like, is that a standard relay or split charge. I'll take a picture of mine ASAP. Picture of Mine ?. What does it look like.
Anyway did well so far and Fiat forum is good. However doing pre MOT checks on a Voyager at mo and my old 66 year body needs renewed. But hope to get these fuse boxes in dash pictured with uses...

Last year I purchased a Winnebago on a 2005 Ducato RHD in Australia which looks identical to your photos. I also got very little information with it and have searched out and accumulated whatever I can. I have extracted the info about the fuse box locations and fuses from the owners manual (obtained on line from this forum I think) and found it very helpful. Of course none of this will impact your coach power as that is usually all supplied from a separate coach system (my fuse box is above the coach entrance door) although mine has a charging supply from the battery fuse box CBA to the coach system.

Looks good Kconnell, fuse boxes look right. Getting boxes and fuse numbers with their uses on same page would be ideal. Thanks.

Split Charge Relay, is this picture it. It's on bulkhead offside starter battery.
Got wiring diagrams of Swift campers of 2002 so will add them on here soon.

Hi goggs
I think you will find that is the fuel cut-off switch, which activates when a collision occurs.
Cheers

..on that vintage of Swift, it's likely you'll find the split-charge/fridge relays, and associated fuses, behind the black plastic cowl at the upper, centre rear of the engine bay.

Two easily seen and removed nuts, and it lifts off.

(the equivalent of 5 on the diagram)

Hi again just adding another cog to finding route of wiring from starter battery to habitation/control panel/battery area. So here's pics of what's behind no5 in Hugh's engine compartment. Still got to note wire colours, from and route.

I thought someone had already posted a link to the Sargent Schematics, but it would appear I was mistaken.

They seem to have removed anything earlier than 2004, but there will (IMO) have been little change from your 2002 vehicle.

The 2004 schematic can be downloaded from:

https://www.sargentltd.co.uk/tech-support/article/25/download/265

...and should help you with the circuitry, if not the geography. (It makes obvious what the relays and fuses you've now exposed are).

I think quite a bit of the wiring from the engine compartment entered the 'van below and behind the vehicle battery and tray, but I certainly wouldn't want to stake a lot on it!

Yes thanks Hugh, I've still to put a 2002 Schematic on here when I can eventually get it copied from book. Will try tomorrow.

This schematic from Swift booklet that came with camper. Theirs also a Gazelle, Sundance and Mondial one if anyone wants it. Got to compare it with the Sargent one.
Doesn't look too good, need to work out how to get it blown to A4 size and turned. Then Laminate it.

Be my guest.
