Rx450 battery

So after 13 years the original Panasonic Battery was replaced with a new Bosch s4 024 on recommendation from here. In the end it started to manifest a check hybrid fault, cruise control died on motorway doing 70mph, info display for power info died at same time. I changed Battery over and all faults have now disappeared. Thought I would share in case any others had these issues. When I tested the old Battery it showed 11.67v and 20amps so clearly was at the tail end of goosed. I got it delivered by Tanya for £69.83. Just need a vent tube adaptor if anyone can point to one they got.

Hi Mick, There seems to be a good deal of these available on line, this is the one I found on a quick google search.

I'm surprised that problems arose while driving.  I would have thought that once driving the inverter would have maintained a stable 12v for the computers to run.

Only passed on what it did, don’t know why it did what it did but appears a dead Battery can drag the computer and systems down.
