batt prob ran low with the radio on so when you started it there was probly too much load on the alternator, check the main fuse box under the bonnet beside the battery and check the alternator/starter or main fuse link could be a 60 or 80amp...what car is it on

Sorted it straight after I put this thread up,typical! The plug goin into the ignition switch was loose,also sorted my turbo timer countin down every now and then by itself
