Battery coding?

ThatWhiteM3 · 12-09-2016, 08:21 PM

Hello, so my battery almost died, it didn't have power to crank the engine but it didn't die all the way. So we use jumping cables to give it a start. Does it need to be reprogrammed at this point?

Thank you

Did your check engine light came on for a while after or anything with emissions?

your battery needs to be registered if you replaced it. Recharging it, no
