Defender update:
today the heater stopped working, windscreen wipers stopped working, instrument panel stopped working, weird noise from fuse box, key snapped in door and then the battery completely died and I left the car a few miles from home and rode the bike I luckily had in the back the rest of the way.
Check the contacts on those fuses we cleaned up in the fuse box where the main feeds come through, all though it might just be they packed up as the voltage was dropping before the battery died.
