I'm getting this message when I turn the car on, or rather, I was! It now thinks the lights are left on?

I have no trouble using the car though.

Best to send the dash ECU off to Paul Smith to get the battery replaced and the corruption fixed if needed. You can get into a whole world of hurt if you make an arse of swapping the battery in the dash ECU over, that needs to be done with the power on.

Drivers side footwell behind the cover next to the accelerator. You simply unplug the multi-plugs to remove it. If your mileage has been lost I am sure it can be re-programmed if you can prove the mileage. I don't have Paul's details as I am away hopefully somebody else can post it for you otherwise I will do it when I am home next
