Hello again from xl5.
The battery in my car is ok but the terminals and cables connected to it need cleaned, also the well that the battery sits in can do with a spruce up.
I am reluctant to disconnect the battery to remove it as i will lose the code for my expensive radio/cd unit when interrupted and i don't happen to have the code to re-enter it. I could if i had another car battery handy connect it in parallel temporarily with jump leads to a positive point lower down this would then would allow me to remove the original battery for access.
An alternative thought might be to source the always 12v supply to the radio and use say a 12v backup battery from a house alarm to power the memory cct, would this latter idea be feasible?.
