[chris810]

no hidden keyhole on the nearside chris ?

 

[chris810]

Yes i have that but the key turns the lock and nothing happens

However i have found the issue now its the main fusable link under the red cover on the battery i have removed it got the plastic cover off and bridging both ends of the link restores full function, guess its off to the nearest scrapyard to get a new link

Thanks for the quick reply
