which is weird
but i got an update ,
i put new battery on today (bosch s4) even with the new battery on i still got all the errors, so i thought , yeah its dead.
went out tonight before work , just to see if it was still the same , and low and behold , everythings OK?.
no warning light , everything OK
still going to get it checked thought cos somethings not right
