Mate, I would assume that you have flatten the battery...
Similar case (of RRS faults as a result of a flatten batter during cleaning) has been discussed recently...
Call LRA and they will sort it easily for you Thumbs Up

Yup just a flat battery by the sounds of it. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

All those warnings are sure signs of a low or flat battery, it's one way the car tells you the battery is in a poor state of charge - RRS and D3 hate low batteries! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Same happened to me

http://rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic12350.html?highlight=

I've never had this happen on any other of my cars.

The moral of the story is :- don't leave your keys in the car with the radio on for too long Exclamation

Putting your keys in the ignition "wakes up" all the elctrical systems in the car, doesn't just allow you to listen to the radio. Putting the key in the ignition also charges the internal battery in the fob, so when all the system think they have to be ready to go there's a fair old drain on the battery. IIRC you don't need the key in the ignition to use the audio anyway, just press the on button and it will come to life for 30 minutes and then switch off, just press the on button again to bring it to life. What you won't be able to do is annoy the neighbours by listening to the audio at high volume, you get so far up the loudness scale and it goes no further and the display shows Low Energy Mode or something similar 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
