another issue I’m having, on my new to me and previous l322 is the hdc inactive message on initial cold startup.
Battery voltage is the obvious answer but I’ve just purchased a new battery day before yesterday, more powerful than standard, was ok until I did 3 short, under 5 mile journeys today, this evening I went to use it and got the hdc message,
I don’t have a parasitic drain and with my old battery that was only a year old I could leave the car a few days and it still started fine but would show the same message,
I replaced the battery because my drop tester showed it as ok but weak and I needed a spare battery for other projects so figured a new one in the rangie wouldn’t hurt.
