My RedEye Just Went Bonkers

Thanks everyone. Installed the new battery and everything is fine except the check engine light is on. However, no diagnostic codes showed up.

Try 3 starts, and make sure you open and close the Driver's door

I had a tender in my motorcycle battery this past year and it did the same. It WAS a new one last year. It was flat shit dead. Another year another $120 for the Harley.

The HF trickle charger I used many years ago failed and ruined the battery. Used "Battery Tenders" since, 4 or 5 of them on different vehicles without any issues.

Been using HF float chargers for over 10y, I have not has a single prob and everything have been working flawlessly. I checked the bat I use for my dump trailer which spends 99% of it's time in my shop on the HF, it was drawing 5ma at full charge.

Never forget, there is no such thing as trade secrets in China, the mfr of the HF supplier's factory is across the street (literally, unless it is the same factory) from the premium brands, and management crosses the street every day.

Why do you think they do not allow foreigners to use cameras in SIP?!??!?! I have been there.

The Suzhou Industrial Park spans an area of 278 square kilometres (107 sq mi), and has a population of 807,800 permanent residents, per a 2019 publication released by the industrial park.

My original battery will be 9 years old in September. It goes on a Battery Tender Plus for 5 months a year. It still load tests fine, and the car starts like new.

I think my world record battery life award goes to the AC/Delco battery in my grandmother's 1975 Firebird. That battery has been in that car and starting it every year since 1995! It's insane. It helps that the car has nothing to drain it from a trace charge, like an analog clock, but still. That's nuts. It's probably my Gramma Rose looking out for us (and her old car: she bought it new in '75).

Hi Folks! It's been a very, very long time since I posted here. Been dealing with some health issues and wife's dementia and I just lost interest in my Hellcat. Okay, here's the point of my post. After sitting for several months in my garage on a battery tender, I went to start the car (out of guilt for not doing so for a long time). The battery was completely dead. I mean as a door nail. I put it on a portable charger (Wolfbox), started it and that's when all Hell broke loose; lights flashing, horn going off, rough idle, the wrath of God coming down on me. It's also had a blank screen. My question is, could it be that the gas went bad or that the battery did not have enough charge to run the electronics? I don't know. I'm going to replace the battery (which looks like a difficult job) and see what happens. Your thoughts. Anyone else have this happen to them. Thanks. I hope all of you are doing well!!

your not by chance using a z-automotive Tazer? Or have you ever used one?
