Battery change question

[Marr]

I’m going to have to change my battery soon. Is there anything special I have to do once I hook it back up, before I start it, like set anything, hold buttons to reset anything ? Or will everything reset once it’s started ? Thanks

No...

You will have to reset your clock...but that will not affect the starting...:thumbup:

Have a 2014 RTS and the battery is dead. Have a battery charger and an able to charge it back up. Question: Do I have to take all the connections off the battery to charge?

unhook negative terminal first, then unhook positive
on install of new battery, hook positive terminal first, then negative terminal
you will need to reset clock, and maybe other functions (probably radio presets, if you have them)
I doubt much will reset on its own

If you're buying one that comes with the acid in a bottle be sure to let it soak for a day or two before you charge it. You'll have to reset your clock and some audio settings.
