Replaced Battery - Reprogram System Board?
in 07 - 13 Lexus IS250 / IS350 / IS-F
Posted
This scenario leads me to a question along the same lines:
i have a 2007 IS350. This year in Seattle there were a few "cold" days in a row. When i went out to start my car the battery was "dead" (dim lights, would not start).
I used my wifes jump-start-battery-boxto start it up.
Drove to work, then drove home and had no problem the next two days. Another two day stretch of cold days and had the same problem and resolved it the same way.
This time i bought a battery thinking the old one needed to be replaced.
The new battery has sat in my garage for 3 months now since i have had no further problem from the old battery.
My 1st question is: Based on the info above about reprogramming the ECM is there some special way to swap out batteries?
2nd question: since i have had no further issues from my old battery is there any need to swap it out at all?
