In your manual - you get a hard copy, so easier to do.thanks ill have to look uo what alot of that means never heard of battery sensor reset
If you disconnect or replace the battery and your vehicle has an automatic transmission, it must relearn its adaptive strategy. Because of this, the transmission may shift firmly when first driven. This is normal operation while the transmission fully updates its operation to optimum shift feel.
Battery Sensor Reset
When you install a new battery, reset the battery sensor by doing the following:
- Switch the ignition on and leave the engine off.
- Flash the high beam headlamps five times, ending with the high beams off.
- Press and release the brake pedal three times.
Battery Management System (If Equipped)
The system monitors battery conditions and takes actions to extend battery life. If excessive battery drain is detected, the system temporarily disables some electrical systems to protect the battery.
Systems included are:
- Heated rear window.
- Heated seats.
- Climate control.
- Heated steering wheel.
- Audio unit.
- Navigation system.
After battery replacement, or in some cases after charging the battery with an external charger, the battery management system requires eight hours of vehicle sleep time to relearn the battery state of charge. During this time, your vehicle must remain fully locked with the ignition switched off.
