Just returned from 17 days out of the country to a dead battery.

Walked off the plane this morning confident of a drive out on my birthday, but I am trickle charging the car and grudgingly watching the F1 for now. Must leave on charge next time or battery isolate. Annoying!

might need more than the trickle charge
Could you not jump it?
Don't have any jump leads - major fail I know smile If it doesn't wake up after the race, I'll pop down to my local Halfords for a set.

Got some jump leads - didn't need them, a 5 hour trickle charge has awakened the beast from slumber smile Letting it tick over for 10 minutes then off to ensure the battery is fully charged wink
