Nick Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Hi all, due to lock down my battery is completely dead.Going to be putting a new one on in a couple of days. Is it just simple swap or any circuit issues issues I should know about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 The battery swap should be okay to retain settings but if in doubt you can use another battery to connect via wires to put a charge through the leads whilst disconnected. There is a special tool for this but you can use wires for cheaper option https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Draper-12V-Car-Vehicle-Radio-Code-Clock-Memory-Saver-12V-Socket-Battery-Changing/133344192488?hash=item1f0beee7e8:g:3hMAAOSwOGleVSSs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
