Well I took the CEM apart and cleaned it. All contacts were good with no damage.
Apparently I have cooked the battery and need a new one.
I had left my side lights on and the battery went flat so had to jump start the car using a 2lt diesel ambulance which had an up rated alternator which produces a lot more Amps than my battery could take, so although the car started, my mechanic thinks that the battery got fried as it is not holding a charge now.
New battery on order, I'll update further as to if this solves the problem.
