Jump start busted my MFA

I got a flat battery the other day cos forgot the interior light and side lights were on the whole 3hours i was working on my motor, jump started it, now my MFA just has a blank screen
anyone have this before, if so is just a case of disconnecting and then reconnecting the battery? or has something blown that i can't see?
Cheers in advance
