It's not very cold in Aus right now... ;)

just confirm that the battery is fully charged.... maybe the shop knackered your battery, get a multimeter. and check.

thanks guys, got it going. it was a blown main fuse. i have 2x funky negative ignition cables, i'm sure the ignition is aftermarket because of the 3rd party key but why the 2 blue negative cables? i'll post pics when i'm able to.
