Hi,
My Freelander battery went flat and now the key doesn't switch the ignition on.

Any ideas please.

Doesn't switch the ignition on - as in no lights appearing on the dash, or the lights come on and it doesn't crank the engine over?
 
Try a 'hard reset'. Disconnect both battery cables from the battery, hold the positive and negative cables together for 10 seconds to do a complete discharge of all circuits, wait 10 minutes and then reconnect the battery.

From memory of when I had a Freelander, there are some cables/connectors either under the passenger carpet or just above where the passengers feet go that can be easily disconnected by a heavy footed clumsy passenger. Might be with having a look in that area if the hard rest doesn’t cure it.

Hi M,
Freelander now running, the 'hard reset' did the trick.
Thanks a lot, and to all that helped.
