I'm sure I'll work it out eventually  %$%
Once it's 100% back together I'll get the manual out and have a look over it and check all connectors again for burns/dirt ect.

Check Fuses etc. Could be something simple. The interconnectors would be the first place I'd look after the fuses.

Not just yet. Been lazy.
