After posting the pic I realised they are upside down. Still does the same. Will get new batteries and clean the terminals and hopefully that solves the issue

if there is white/blue looking build up, you should neutralize that with a mixture of half vinegar half water (an old toothbruth can be useful), dry off, then wet the area with alcohol or metho.

Got a bit of the brown/white fuzzies on the terminals on that battery holder in the picture as well.

Put some new batteries in the correct way around as suggested and if it is still getting the factory restored message you might need to look into replacing the holder with either a new one or ideally with a remote off board alternative.
What is a remote off board holder out if curiosity?

Like these: They can be mounted on the inner left hand side of the backbox.

Prevents potential board damage if the batteries ever leak.

Ok. I have done as suggested.  Cleaned up contacts, replaced with new batteries and that has seemed to fix the start issue.
Thanks guys.

Try reseating connector 1J14 on the CPU.

Issue I have now is the following
On CPU board there is no connector on 1J14 and 1J16
And nothing connected on J16 and J20 on interconnect board.

Is there a way a harness of sorts can be made to go to these plugs? How can i get it fixed
