Dead Battery now many problems please help

When you change out a battery (especially as cars get more and more reliant on computers) do yourself a favour and get yourself two sets of jumper leads. Connect the new battery to the terminal connectors with one set before removing the terminal connectors from the old battery. then put the new battery in place. Connect the old battery to the other jumper leads prior to removing them from the new battery. Then connect the terminal connectors to the terminals on the new battery before removing all the jumper leads. This keeps power to the circuitry at all times and prevents any "issues"

I done it like that before on my car but since the X was having some issues already when I went to change the battery I left the cables disconected for a good hour or so before I plug in the new battery and everything went back to normal right away except the traction control light which went away today after a short drive.

It's all good now

Have you considered a two battery setup with an isolator?
