    Unless you know where those 2 earth studs are by chance Graeme??

    Also, we have 6 antennas??? Here I was assuming there would be one on the roof and one near the front somewhere for the ignition...

    I can't help with the location of the earths but I'd start with the studs behind the front footwell side panels.

    Just as an aside, I was getting numerous faults when my battery was getting old. Low voltage on startup caused ecu startup issues for many of he ECUs and errors logged. New battery, no errors. Might not be related, but interesting.

    In true fashion, I went to go have a look around and remove the kick panel.

    Fault cleared and didn't come back...

    While on batteries... Would people suggest putting a new main in before a trip?

    I have a new Yellowtop but the main looks to be a couple of years old.

    Have it load tested. Battery World will do it for free. Just roll up to the counter and ask, that is what I have done in the past.

    Pretty close to correct, i reckon this was it.

    Had it's first proper service today (by Rover Tech and not the used car dealer).

    Without any fault codes to chase they noticed it was charging lower than normal volage, earth block was loose. Tightened earth plate, instant 14.2V.

    Will stick some locktite on that earth I think.
