Does this apply to the +07? I disconnected the battery to test a spare dash I bought and didnt notice anything different.

I just puchased 2007 RSVR, battery was dead off of the truck. I replaced the battery without key in ignition. Should I do the key on and 15 second wait to be sure?

yes do it if you have not already done so, but if its been sitting now for two days since connecting the battery before you've done this or ridden it then your battery may already be well depleted. The issue is when you install it and it sitting for a bit before you go and ride it (like installing the battery at night and not riding it until later the next day) it will sit draining all the while.

Ok, so I've dis connected the battery before to install a tender lead and I followed the procedure and I think it went correctly but I've always had a bit of a weak battery. I installed a new battery today and now I'm second guessing myself the entire time... What if my new battery goes dead?? What if I did it wrong the first time and that's why I felt like I always had a weak battery?? I'd hate to ruin another one... How often is the red immobilizer light supposed to blink? Somebody tell me it's all gong to be ok... Hold me...


Ok I'm done whining and worrying now, thanks for the write up!!

When the speedo "Zero's out" how do you put the correct original mileage back on the odometer?

You can't.
