Ok, found the service connector! Thanks to Merlin and an image I found on here.

Fault code 41, Heated o2 sensor. Checked resistance - none. Ordered a new sensor today, hopefully that will cure all my problems. It was the only code shown.

While you're waiting for the new sensor to arrive, spray the old one with copious amounts of WD40 or similar.
I've heard they can be a bugger to undo. Mine was fine but it's best to be prepared. ;)

New sensor arrived today. Came off easy, been changed before by the looks of it.

Fitted it easy, now no engine light and drives better already. Just need some petrol in it so I can take it for a proper test run. :D
