Not had any real problems regards the battery, couple of years old now.
I tried to register it at the time. The Foxwell obd reader method seemed not very positive if it had taken, like no feed back from screen.
Few weeks ago battery low came on, i had the boot open a lot getting tools to work on bike. Got extra boot lights don't help.
Plus sat a week using another vehicle.
So whilst tatting i connected my Halfords intelligent charger to the under bonnet points.
11.7 volts (low?) from memory, so it started charging at 12.3 volts. I wait for it to rise to 14+ volts.
All good.
Hour later charging had stopped just showing volts at 12.1.
Can't be right, was the car electrics stopping the charge or had the charger paused to check the state of charge.
But didn't restart charging.
So i check battery volts direct...11.7 volts at the terminals.
So have now connected charger to battery posts.
4 hours later still charging.
Check volts 12.1........now charging at 14 volts.
Have been driving car last few days, thought it might have kept fully charged.
Everything works ok.
Sometimes wonder if re registering battery might make a difference. Need to check the historical capacity next from obd.
