Simon;

Thanks for followup...your preventative work can never have hurt, and if your symptoms do not reoccur, may very well have sorted the issue, and indirectly "found" the problem (if not precisely).

12.6V to 11.6V indicates a Bat in good shape and at a good SoC... IF symptoms ever do return, measure Voltage at output term of HCC (input to St Mot) while helper energizes Sol and tries to Start...to see if it is a poor through-contact at HCC or dead spot in St Mot (rare!)...even just with a test-lamp would do, if you do not have your DVM along...

Cheers
