    Just the usual 3 beeps & few flashes just after starting up.
    After the OK check, it does it just after that.

        The problem with it loosing pressure in the morning when she has been stood all night will be the check valve in the neck of the bomb, at some point, or maybe even still now the oil will have got old and dirty, and the little bits of cr@p and crud will sit onto the check valve seat and cause the check ball not to sit properly allowing a tiny amount of oil to continuously seep back to reservoir, so over a long time stationary all the pressure built up will seep back to the tank. The pump is also designed to hold pressure back when idle as it does have a similar set up of check valves in the casing, but once again a dirty system will clog them up. A system clean out is always good as it often loosens the crud on the seats and helps to re seat them. If the oil is brown and opaque change it its mingin
