Hi Mark.
Apologies for the delay in replying. I had a CT Scan first thing, followed by various kidney function tests, so didn't get to play until after 11:30hrs. Discovered I was locked out so had joy of "gaining entry" without the key which bemused several neighbours. Changed fuse 1 and the Dashboard resumed play, but saying "KEYCODE LOCKOUT". Then spoke to Mozz who said check ALL fuses. Replaced 30-amp Transfer box fuse which had blown too. One of the rods FROM drivers door handle had detached, so when that was reconnected, put key in ignition and engine started. PHEEEW! Drove a couple of miles to check if all systems were go. When I stopped for 5mins, the b4st4rd ignition key couldn't be inserted into barrel. Spoke with Mozz again and that was soon rectified. Then I couldn't find my mobile until about an hour ago down side of transmission tunnel. In meantime, I've finished overhauling the EAS block. First one I've done and, before I have spinal surgery tomorrow afternoon, I'll have time to refit to P38 before leaving for hospital. That's the plan anyway! Time for some food and a glass of red wine methinks! Kind regards, Mike.

I phoned the Samaritans over Christmas and was diverted to an Indian call centre , when I told them I was suicidal they got very interested and asked if I could drive a lorry or fly a plane..Happy new year everyone.

Thanks to all of you that chipped in with advice after my screw-up last night. Particular thanks to Mozz who endured another couple of mobile calls with me and talked me through the necessary hoops to be jumped through to get the P38 up and running again. Mozz...youre an absolute gent...even though you're a Man City fan!
All the best guys!
A grateful Mike.
