Thanks QBee

PapaButch

Thanks also but can you edit out your post, I asked for PM so that the information wasn't on a public forum.

Cheers both

Thanks all

Back in now, reconnected charger now wait & see if the battery recovers or time for a new one.

Will probably replace anyway as its been on for at least 5 years.

Not sure when it was disconnected but probably 2 weeks, not had the car out due to snow & salt.

OP, assuming a locked garage, was that two weeks with or without alarm active, out of interest? I'm not a burglar BTW.

Safely locked away in the garage, garage alarmed even if the car wasn't.

Turn it back on again?

Not quite that simple, the charger is plugged into the cigarette lighter and in my panic when the car wouldn't unlock I pulled the cable slightly and that was enough to pull the socket up enough to stop contact!

All's well now, left the battery conditioner on for 24hrs and car started okay, but still going to change the battery this week.
