Hi All.
I have a near new (5 months old) Supercharge battery in my Euro. The cars charging system is working fine. I have just come home from 11 days away to find the battery absolutely DEAD FLAT. 0.2 Volts on my multimeter. Nothing was left on and the car was locked with the key fob.
I unlocked the car manually with the drivers door lock to get inside.
This is most unusual. Any ideas where to look for a fault would be greatly appreciated. The battery / car / charging system appeared to be working fine before I left. Will this complete discharge damage my battery ? I can't tell yet as it is on the trickle charger now.
Also when I connected the battery charger the indicators started to flash and horn give a feeble toot! What is all that about ?
Looks like a bit of pain resetting radio and memories is coming my way but fr the moment all I want to drive is my beautiful car.
Cheers and thanks for any advice in advance.
