Hello all!
Last time I was riding, I got a "low transponder battery" warning. Since then we've had the coldest streak of the winter, and the motorcycle has been garaged.
I replaced the battery in the transponder, and went outside to start er' up today, it's been about 2 weeks since my last ride, and pushing down on the stovepipe just displayed a red LED on the dash. I presumed the battery on the actual motorcycle was dead, I don't have power to our garage, so I don't run a trickle charger. I tried to jump the battery, but nothing happened.
I'm placing bets on needing a new battery, double checked I put the battery in the transponder the right way. Just want to make sure I don't have to do anything special or tricks once a transponder battery has been replaced? I've been riding more over the winters, but outside of bringing my battery inside and putting it on a trickle or running an extension cord into the garage, are there any better options?
