Chrysler Delta Battery

[italoafro]

Hi All

 

I think my Delta needs a battery replacement as it still has the original from 2012.

 

Does anyone know if I can disconnect the old battery and replace without having a diagnostics tool to reprogram?

 

In other words, is it DIY job for this type of vehicle?

 

Any input would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

DIY job - did mine last year with no problems

I used the nuts on the terminals to run some wire to a third battery just to make sure.

I changed mine about a month back (2011)......no problem, just re.set your date time etc.

I'm still on the original battery too. My S/S has ceased working but thats OK with me and no other issues so................... I have disconnected before though for service work. No real issues although you may get some initial lights and errors and may need to move the steering wheel from lock to lock to remove any Steering errors. You might also need to reset the Auto-down windows function by fully depressing each then holding for 5 seconds.

I just took mine to Halfords where they charged me a minimal amount to install. It took five mins, they took care of the old battery too. Once fitted all the dash warning lights came on but disappeared after 20 secs & I was good to go- just had to change the date/time settings which was simple enough even for me.
