Not just on cars used infrequently, but more likely to happen. They sometimes do break on cars which are regularly used.
Near side front is my bet

Blimey the seller has a variety of stuff for saleBattery.. Do you have a charger, here's one going cheap on ebay.
That was my experience to. Near side front failed but the others were fine.Near side front is my bet

While it is out short the battery terminals together, which is supposed to drain all residual charge.
Do not do this!!!!!!
Unless you fancy an explosion or fire or something similarly unpleasant.
Have done it more times than I care to remember with no battery in the car.I think he meant the battery connections to the car. I've heard this. Disconnect battery. Connect positive connection of car to ground of car
This is meant to eliminate any residual current. Whatever that is

If that's the case, that's fine ....phew. He actually wrote 'battery terminals' so thought it best to say something.
I had exactly the same problem 2 years ago on my 2009 QP 4.7S. I replaced the battery but the lights still stayed on. It turned out to be a faulty front left ABS sensor. Cost me just over £1k to have it fixed!.The sensor is embedded in the hub and you cant extract it so it's a whole new hub at £637 plus VAT plus installation.
Very likely this from my experience. MSP, Suspension, ABS and EPB. If EML and gearbox lights are off, then a wheel sensor 9/10. They go on cars seldom used.
Yes, indeed. It would be bad......
Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

Quick question, when fitting ctek charger
, or similar, do you disconnect the battery via the isolator to protect the system?
Evan after our sensor was replaced there was still a problem - turned out to be a fractured wire in the wiring loom. But my car is a bit older - an 02 SpyderThink positive !
