imboulton Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Please can somebody help me get rid of my headache, I have a 2002 Fiat Rapido 772 and for some reason cannot find the whereabouts of the leisure battery. The Rapido user guide just tells me it is in a battery box (typical French info). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brambles Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Have you checked under the drivers seat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyishuk Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Rapido (generally) put the batteries in sensible places for servicing, so I would look for a box of some description witha lift off lid. In my 709, the battery was under the bed in a box witha lid witha finger (lifting) hole in it. If all else fails, you could try asking Rapido @ Wokingham for their advice. (Like most Rapido owners, they do get confused with which model number is which :-o ) Rgds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philman Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Although mine is not a Rapido, my Leisure Battery is located under a false floor in the Wardrobe. Phil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel B Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Why not have a shuftie underneath and see if you can spot a below floor battery box/compartment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imboulton Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 Thanks for your input, this was where my local dealer suggested. So up comes carpet found screw plated cover and on removal discovered it was access to the fuel tank senders. So no joy there. Am awaiting reply from Rapido dealers, Wokingham, failing that will do a quick course in french. Regards and have a good season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
