Electrical Gremlins.. Any help please!

Hi all
So the fun starts!

2004 TD6. Working on it all weekend with boot and doors open, the battery went virtually flat (not enough to start it). I jumped started it and got it under the carport and put on trickle charge.
Done this a million times with no issues.

Car started straight away, but have inherited a few issues.

Radio screen is black and wont play
Indicators outside work, but dont flash on dash.
Brake lights come on when ignition off
Heater air flow lights flicker and fade
When keys out the "P" red light and the suspension lights are on faint.

I ran Icarsoft and wiped all faults but all it seems to have fixed is the brake lights now go off with the ignition.

Have searched and read a similar experience with advice of "Remove fuse 2" and unplug and replug towing module?

Anyone point me as to where these are? Worth a go as MOT tomorow!!!

Cheers
Tel

Just try a battery reset, disconnect, fully charge the battery then reconnect, turn steering to both locks.. see what happens... Thumbs Up Pete

Ok

So car been running with heater on full for 45 mins.. House mate has just rung and said everything is back working again..

Maybe bit of cold and damp from the weekend?

Guessing only a temporary fix, but at least i have half a chance with MOT tomorow now, until i can find a perm fix Accept, some days your the pigeon, some days your the statue!

Please do...

I had a similar list of errors after I drowned fatty offroader in that Welsh river, most from the BECM which leaned how to swim... check for damp under the passenger seat... Seeing as you didn't mention water I plumed for battery voltage....Thumbs Up Pete
