England 2007 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Hi, thanks for your help and advise much appreciated.
Firstly Saturday I took the battery off to charge ,and wrenched my back so been laid up resting it,but before I took battery off after replacing the radio and centre console, I tried the ignition and nowt but the warning message centre read normal no warning messages, so did the automatic gear selector centre below the clock, whereas before it read a large E
but I did notice that none of the usual lights that comes on when I turned the key to the second position to start.
The battery was reading eleven volts so I charged it over night and it read fully charged so I disconnected battery from charger and left the battery to see if the battery was loosing charge, over twenty four hours it went down to eleven and a half volts so I am now charging it again and going to see what it reads tomorrow,then leaving it while Wednesday to see if the battery looses charge,and if it needs replacing its under guarantee from the last owner,but my intention is to put the battery back on fully charged ,do I need to do another hard reset ? and check what you have told me, I am going to re place the brake switch as a matter of caution because everyone is blaming faulty brake switch on this forum.
By the way the radio doesent come on at all either

This is a popular option:

https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/exide/ea1000/

There are cheaper choices on their site but a lot of people have ordered the Exide and seem very pleased with it.

Enter code 'D2BOYS' and if it is still valid, you'll get another 5% discount.

But check the dimensions before ordering just to be on the safe side Thumbs Up 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

Sounds like something isn’t registering as being closed. Does it warn you that the bonnet etc. Is open when you start the car ?

Have you checked your alternator yet? Perhaps the AA did it? Robin
