AndyLou Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hi We have a Bessacarr E745 on a Fiat Ducatto 2.8 and we're experiencin a lot of odd electricAl problems. Engine temperature gauge reading hot then cold then hot again, reversing camera not coming on, battery alarm sounding after a journey an ultimately when I turned the lights on the steroids went off and then complete electrical failure. Stuck on a 27 with no hazard lights very scary. After the police had towed us to a layby the RAY came and diagnosed a faulty earth. He fitted a new lead to earth the chassis and all our troubles went away. I am posting this in case any body else has this sort of problem. Hope this helps Andy & Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken the kontiki Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Great result. Also a common problem on the later X2-50 Fiats - been there and got the t-shirt lol. Ours would fail to start on the odd occasion when the engine was hot and displayed all the signs of a flat cab battery. Fitted a new earth cable and a second one to be on the safe side and all's been well for the past 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanS Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Good to hear that you are 'back in business'. This is an all too common problem - check / replace earth strap first. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
