    New Batteries Question

    My 17' still has factory batteries.

    Not having any issues, but a thought occurred.

    When removing both for a swap to new, does anything besides the radio lose memory or need reprogrammed MM3 to have memory?

    Thanks.

    If you remove one at a time and replace it, you shouldn't lose any memory.

    Well, that's pretty simple, I suppose, LOL.

    I had wondered the same thing, so I was careful only to disconnect one battery at a time, thus maintaining the voltage.

    Then I read that when replacing batteries, disconnect them to allow the Intelligent Battery Sensor to reset and adapt to the new batteries.

    Now I do disconnect both batteries and have not needed to reprogram anything.

    I don’t know if the radio loses memory as I don’t use the presets.

    I do know my radio NAV information remains in my memory.

    When I replaced my starter, both batteries were disconnected (for obvious safety reasons) and reconnected.

    The only thing lost was the clock setting.

    Radio presets were fine, and the tune was maintained.
