I've read several posts about battery replacement. There seems to be a trend where is you disconnect the old, swap in the new, and strange things happen. My owners manual talks about a list of functions that might have to be reset. When I replaced the cruise control switch my battery was disconnected overnight, when I hooked it up everything worked fine, just had to reset the radio code. I believe it has to do with inturupting power and the "computers" still having date stored, which get corupted when you reconnect. I'd try diconnecting the batter for several hours, or overnight, then connecting agin to see what happens. Good Luck, Chuck
