| Neilm Member Since: 02 Feb 2025 Location: Brackley Posts: 12    | Yes completely disconnected and unplugged. Alarm connected or not at exactly 5 minutes after locking something wakes up and constantly draws 0.5 amps. Surprised the battery lasts 10 days but don't know the battery capacity.

LR Assist told me they if an update doesnโt fully complete, you get a battery drain as it keeps trying to pull the new data down but repeatedly fails. Mine went completely flat eventually and needed to call them out. | ||

| Claud Member Since: 26 Sep 2021 Location: Surrey Posts: 12      | I had the same issue on my P440E, it was identified by Land Rover Assist as a faulty Battery Energy Control Module (BECM). Software update fixed the issue. The Mild hybrids likely have a similar module. RRS Autobiography P460E | ||

| Neilm Member Since: 02 Feb 2025 Location: Brackley Posts: 12    | Thanks for your suggestions. It is booked in the dealership 5th June. I do hope it's as simple as a software update ๐ | ||

| Neilm Member Since: 02 Feb 2025 Location: Brackley Posts: 12    | Would they update the software or just jump the battery to start it? | ||

| Claud Member Since: 26 Sep 2021 Location: Surrey Posts: 12      | In my case they jump started the car and then did a full fault code scan, identified the issue with the BECM and updated the software. RRS Autobiography P460E | ||

| Neilm Member Since: 02 Feb 2025 Location: Brackley Posts: 12    | Thanks, I'll give it a try and let it go flat. May save a waste of a day going to the dealership ๐ | ||

| Neilm Member Since: 02 Feb 2025 Location: Brackley Posts: 12    | It didn't take long to go flat again, with security phoning today due to battery voltage. I phoned LR assist and this afternoon they updated most modules. It appears that both headlamp modules were the cause and not powering down. Time will tell, I'll report back in a few days if it's resolved. Thanks for the advice ๐ | ||
