Hi all,
My Noco Genius1 keeps indicating a bad battery on my 03 Tundra. I have loaded tested it with a 100amp load tester and it tests fine. I have been driving it and it starts right up everytime and doesn't seem to be turning over any slower than usual. Gauges all seem normal as well.
Does anyone know how this charger/maintainer determines the battery is bad? I have tried connecting it to my lawnmower battery as well as the battery in my accord and it charges for a while and then goes into maintaining mode as it should, but everytime I try it on the truck it charges for a while and goes to bad battery?
I had been using it on and off for about a week or two at a time on the truck over the winter when it wasn't being driven to keep the battery topped up and now after taking it out last week it started with the bad bad battery indication.
I would hate to replace a battery that's still good, but I don't want to get stuck somewhere with a no start situation either. Can it tell something a load test can't?
