dash info - flat battery

[mattyb]

hi guys, just been away for 10 days, got home and old girl no open. I manually unlock and try to start and nothing, however I noticed that when I pulled the key out of the ignition all the dash info lights are still on gear selection, service indicator etc. Key was turned right back and noting feels wrong with barrel. didn't notice any dash lights on when I parked up sat night 10 days ago. any one had this before?

any and all help / suggestions are welcome as usual.im off to get new battery now to see what thatll do.

thanks all in advance

Will probably disappear when you have recharged your old battery or installed a new battery and the capacitors in the dash are recharged.

Thanx Shogun I was hoping the same, didn't realise the capacitor recharging issue
