Cheers

Col, that is very kind of you, I am only in Wheatley.

I will have to get the battery first, maybe next week, but it doesn't look that difficult really.
Just wanted to get everything clear before I attempted it.

I will see how it goes when I get the battery, thanks for your offer, will update on here how it goes.

Thanks Lost for Words, so disconnect Neg first, then Positive, wrap pos lead in cloth as someone on here suggested to prevent it touching any metalwork.
Remove battery, fit new one, connect Positive first? then Neg...

Yes, that's fine. When not removing the battery, plastic bottle caps can be useful to put over the terminals.

Someone on here also said that all that was need on reconnect is to reset date & clock?

Yes; thankfully, no radio codes. ISTR the navigation country may need resetting too.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Okay, battery arrrived this morning from Tayna, discount code worked, thanks Lost for Words.

Fitted battery this afternoon, all went smoothly, reconnected and reset date & clock.

Started okay, everything looks like it should, haven't taken it for a run yet, hopefully all will be okay now.
