Finding your video saved a lot of frustration. When I looked at the long bolt it didn’t seem to be doing much so I ignored it. Thank you

One thing after installing the battery, and starting the vehicle, DON'T drive anywhere just yet. after 5 min run/charging time, shut vehicle off and let it sit for 15 to 30 minutes. It will give the ECM of the Transmission time to reset, and link back up to the Engine ECM. Otherwise, the vehicle wont shift right when driving. You will get 1st gear and 2nd, but that's it. Let the vehicles computers time to reset 15 - 30 min, 30 min preferred. Everything should be good to roll after that, other than the clock and favorite radio stations you have to re do.

Thanks for the added tip. I didn't do this on my 2012 and it shifted fine.

Do you know how to turn off anti theft if you can’t turn on the vehicle. My anti theft came on but I’m not able to turn it off due to vehicle not being able to start something is wrong with it. I hit a hard bump and it just shut up and won’t turn back on. Then the anti theft turned on next day and been unable to turn it off.

I would start with the simple things first. You may want to remove the battery cables clean the battery cable ends with a wire brush along with the battery terminals. If they battery is 5 years old you may want to replace in incase it is throwing a spike. Was the truck running fine before this happened?

You can try to spray it with some penetrating oil such as PB blaster.

My battery is just over 2 years old. I went on a three week trip and came back to find the battery dead, reading 9.6 volts on my voltmeter. Recharged it but it won't hold a charge. Dropping it down to below 12 volts damaged it. Dang! I was told not to disconnect a battery on 3rd gen Expys because it might damage sensitive electronic and you'd have to reset them all. I guess that was WRONG!

@@HomeOwnerRepair Not yet. I’m testing for phantom current draw thinking that might be my problem. If the current draw checks out ok, then battery replacement may be next.
