yes there fine i was wondering if it had anything to do with ecu reset i did cos since i did it its just been sat on drive way and not driven

Post #6

ECU reset wouldn't have killed the battery.

Just get another battery when you ready to start driving it again and see how you get on.

You might have some sort of problem with you electrical system. Mine was the rad fans. They kept coming on randomly after i'd locked it up. Thought it was the battery. So i bought another one, nice powerful diesel battery, and that went dead as well. I think there is a FAQ on detecting a drain on the electrical system. Ampmeter and pulling fuses one by one rings a bell

check to see if the alternator is charging, also check the discharge on the battery, put a amp meter between the battery neg and batt terminal and see what you get
