Oh yeah you'll have to unlock that voltage menu by inputting a certain number. If I remember it has something to do with your vin adding/ subtracting some numbers.

I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip on the alt too, mine has rear AC and heated rear seats.

Well, the alternator gave out completely last weekend. Replacement part arrived last night. Tackling it this evening.

Well, it wasn't the alt that died, it was the harmonic pulley. But the battery discharge warnings and trip resets continued. So I replaced the battery.

With the old (newish) battery, in just 15 Minutes if having the door open and ignition on, with the engine off, it would throw a battery error up.

The battery that was in it was only 70Ah. My new one is 105Ah. I hope that's the end of the issues. Once I get the computer coded to know it's a 105Ah anyway.

I registered the battery. But there's another step when changing sizes.
