Just turn the car off and back on. That will probably sort it.

and the red light is still on
This is normal Dave.
The Amber light comes on when 50 miles is left, just under 1/4 of a tank.
The RED light comes on when your down to 10 miles to empty.
So if the Red light was on and you put £10 in, it will not take you over the 1/4 guage and so the light will still be on.
Once the gets under a 1/4, the trip puter has a mind of it's own 'sometimes'.
Don't dissconnect the battery, this may only cause other issues.... number one being .... have you got the radio code, loads of members have had issues with not having their number. 
Wack £20-£25 in when you can, and the trip comes back to life.
To note: after owning 5 's the trip really isn't that accurate, it's more of a guideline gadget.
Ahh i see now, Cheers Kev i'll fill up later and hopefully that should sort out the problem!

Depends on temperature as well, that's why f1 is done on weight, as it expands and contracts
