A/C suddenly shuts off

[Majestic]

So for the battery, I purchased a

Odyssey Battery ODX-AGM65 Extreme Series AGM Battery​

The random shutting down of the climate control is mostly gone. I found that turning it on with the touch screen and leaving it on auto has nearly eliminated the problem.

Update if it returns and/or chase down another cause

OK, thanks for the recommendation. I do drive it once or twice a week so isn’t that enough to not need a battery tender? And if I don’t drive, it at least twice a week I’ll certainly start it up remotely and let it run.

A battery tender would be good for you. They are cheap and will keep your battery happier longer.

Grabbed one of those, then connect the positive to the positive battery terminal, and the ground to the strut stud. Works great....

If you are near or belong to Costco -

Every 30 months it lasts - I bring the old one in get whatever credit and swap it.

i set a reminder in my phone, if it lasts 30 months, claim its defective and get a new one for that price.

I’ve never heard of an AGN battery. I’ll make sure to get one when this one needs replacing. I dropped the car off tonight at the dealer so we’ll see what they say.

Did you have the FCIM replaced?

No.

So the dealer has said the new FCIM is bad. They determined that by running the same test on the original FCIM. Should get back next week. Wonder if what they got was a refurb that was not. do they still make these parts or have new "old" stock i wonder.
