Hi guys

Just a quick one, After some quick advice I recently had my battery go flat and since i have reconnected the battery the car is now showing the inspection light warning, Is this connected to the battery going or is just due for the reset??

thanks

which inspection light? The little clock as well? If so that's just a coincidence - 12 months is up since it was last reset - from the schedule is it just the brake fluid change?

nice to see you posting such deep and searching questions.... on the tech forums winkeye

Possibly coincidence, or the batteries in your SI board are getting past their best. The combination of losing their charging current and one of the recent cold nights could have upset the electronics.
