You're doing my favorite trick whenever I am stumped. I let an indy mechanic figure it out and then I fix it myself.

I have never thought of that in my life, that idea is friggn amazing.
However, depending on the task I may do it, or may not do it if it requires a lift / garage where the problem is.

Oh, I didn't say I fix everything. My time is worth money, and so if it's cheaper timewise for my indy mechanic to fix it, I will gladly pay him.

Default Solved.

*SOLVED*
Battery needed to be coded again…

Apparently the coding through Protool and MHD didn’t register the battery correctly, battery was recoded at the shop.

If you don't register the battery, it does not throw any code, it just won't maintain your battery properly over time. Still sounds more like an iffy connection or IBS. I'm not just trying to be right, but that fix just doesn't make sense.
