Thank you all for the recommendations! I decided to go with Duralast at AutoZone because of the 4 year warranty. By reading reviews on all eligible batteries, I realized that they all fail prematurely on some unfortunate consumers. I understand that there are other factors that contribute to the...
There has got to be some significance with the brakes because of the different response that you noted. Does your OBD tool show any brake-related sensor/stats or do you know all that is involved in braking? Mine shows two: brake fluid pressure and brake switch, but there could be more on your...
I thought he was really asking. 😅 Somewhere somehow there was a post or video saying that grounding to the transmission made a difference.
I get the level of frustration tho. I am currently all the way up to my forehead in car troubles.
I saved the list but didn't clear the codes while driving. They just went away on their own. The one for access system is saying that my key fob battery is low. Other apps (OBD Auto Doctor & Piston) didn't find any DTC. I can try a different dongle tomorrow. 😳
I checked my order history with AutoZone and it was a Duralast Gold/Flooded that I got in 2023. I recall not wanting the same one even if covered under warranty.
It is either the Redtop at O'Reilly or Duralast Platinum AGM at AutoZone. 😵💫
Are you still happy with your RedTop? I am planning to pick one up from O'Reilly's tomorrow morning.
The OEM battery went out after 6 years. Then a Diehard from AutoZone started leaking after 2 years (it had caps on top like the EverStart Max.) Now the Mighty Max from Amazon fails to hold a...
Thank you I will try again. Still need a new battery though. Soon after the maintainer was disconnected, the level fell to 12.0 (from 13.6) in less than a minute. I haven't had good luck with batteries after the OG died.
Folks, are we not supposed to scan for codes while driving? I am getting a long list of codes in the OBD Scanner ELM Pro app. None of them triggered a CEL. Nothing comes up once the engine is off.
Here's a list saved from one of the drives. Don't know what to think when something is stuck on...
Quick question, to test for parasitic draw, must I disconnect every accessory including the OBD dongle and keep the key fob 10 ft away? I struggled for 30 minutes and couldn't get a reading after trying every reasonable configuration. The multimeter flashed a number once, when a car passed by...
Is that OBD Fusion? OBD Scanner shows two. Seeing how the two values fluctuate gave me a better sense of the system's health. I also have a rad cap that shows the temp.
