Hi all,
I stupidly left my lights (2 days) on and came back to find that the car doesn't start! I have very little knowledge about cars...
I tried jumpstarting the car but the key doesn't turn - When the battery is connected to the jumpleads the lights/radio etc work but the car won't start. Once the terminals are disconnected nothing works!
Do you think I need a new battery? I spent ages trying to look for something similiar on here but no luck. Also somebody mentioned that codes may need resetting? Is this correct?
I am also getting the following messages on the dash but have no idea what they mean:
1. ABS and ESP currently unaviable, see manual.
2. Restraint sys malfunction consult workshop.
Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
