Disconnecting the battery & relearn procedures

[gclark8]

that sounds expensive, isn't that expensive? you should have gotten a Korean battery :P

It turned out to be Korean after all, the cardboard box it came in was made in the USA. "S85B60R"

The supermarket prices were from $110 for Chinese to $230 for European, I feel $150 to keep it Genuine is ok value.

The battery has a built in Hydrometer, it says "charge me".
Out of the box, 12.33volts, so I will top it up with a trickle charger before fitting.

Done! I re-charged the original, 4 hours on the trickle charger it came up to 12.9 volts and I sold it on Gumtree for $40!


For the swap, I tried to float the solar panel across the car but the alligator clip came off the earth lead, twice, so had to find the "code" to enter in the radio panel, also lost the clock, found time on Radio ABC they are good like that. I hope I have not lost the new engine computer settings, it started ok, fuel tomorrow...
