Right I had a battery low fault on an mpu5, someone told me that u can use something that will give the battery a bit of a kick, to get the machine running again without the need of replacing the mpu, is this true and if so how

Touchwood only had this problem once or twice and each time I replaced the MPU5. I haven't heard of being able to do this but sure somebody will come on and correct me

Correct, as a new battery is not normally charged anyway
