My 2003 2.5L S-Type will not start after reconnecting battery. I have been trying a few times over the past week or 2. The car has not been driven for a few weeks. I thought front seats might have been causing battery to drain because I fitted different seats, so today I removed the 4 fuses in the boot (trunk) fuse box for seat motors. This did not seem to have any effect.

Before not starting just now the battery before reconnecting was reading over 15 V. The starter motor does not spin and I get lots of warnings and instrument needles go right up. The same as last weekend as in this video.

After not starting just now I disconnected battery and the voltage is still about 13 V. Despite the warning there is some fuel in the tank as well.
