when you say flat-do you mean no electrics at all, or is your ignition ok, do your lights work ok, have you checked engine earth lead on to gearbox bolt for good connection? check this bolt for tightness to make sure lead is clamped,if wrong bolt has been put in it might be loose!good idea to check all battery leads as well
