I have hard wired in an accumate charge lead that is accessible just behind the battery box, then if she is sat for a while, i can plug her in to the accumate, even if allowed to go flat..

Worth the money for a weatherproof one from fleabay...

Try holding down the key button for 10-15 secs.

okay, alarm stopped thanks for that, all the hazard warning lights are flashing now and wont turn off. I have attached a faster charger to try and boost the battery using the anderson leads.
Any Ideas?

I would imagine that once your battery is charged it'll come right.

When it shows charged, disconnect the -ve battery connector from the terminal to let all the electronics reset, give it a minute or so, then reconnect.

You might have to do the same thing with the alarm button then, too.

The fast charger broke so ended up jump starting from my other car by extending the Anderson cables with more jump leads. Everything did reset so took for a spin and all ok. Will monitor the charge now it's back on trickle charge. Thanks for help all. I have learnt alot today!!!
