Disconnecting battery

[Pampurrs]

I'm going to disconnect the battery briefly to hook up the pigtail for the Battery Tender. Any issues with the ECM that I need to worry about? Any precautions to take?

Thanks

Take key out of ignition before you disconnect battery and you should be good to go.

Gosh, I hope not... I wired up some things recently and disconnected the battery. I will be curious to know the answer to this one too.

You know, that's actually something I didn't even think of. I usually keep the key in it when it's in the garage. Thank you for that advice! :bowdown:

No issues. All I had to do was reset the clock

Just make sure you disconnect the ground first. Reconnect the hot first then ground.

Help me out. Why take out the key if the key is in the off position? Just curious... just replace my battery and didn't pull the key out during the battery switch. I have a 2010 RT and the battery is buried under the seat and it took me awhile to make the switch.
