Last year, I fitted an AutoCraft Platinum AGM Battery, Group Size H8, 850 CCA that comes with a 3 year warranty. It's been connected to my CTEK on the Snowflake setting during the Winter hibernation. I took the car out for a run twice last week. So far, so good.

Denver V8V is an unknown quantity at this point
Just replaced the battery with a Bosch AGM and now my window works but top doesn't. I had a local shop with AM experience replace it and to get the passenger side window open they reset the fault codes.
I appreciate the feedback on the battery. Hard to believe it was the original factory one installed in '09.
Last time I dropped the top was January 1, 2018. Not sure what's causing this but I will search this site for related issues and see what happens.

After I replaced my flat battery, I had the usual seat and window issues until I reset them. My top also got itself out of sync closing on itself the first time and jamming up. Major panic, but no damage and once I untangled the top from the tonneau panel, all has worked perfectly since. Probably jinxing myself with that last comment!

On another forum I read where one individual with similar issue held the top operation button down in the close position and it reset the top. I did that and now it works.
Wow, who knew?

My passenger window won't drop to allow the door to open, how do you reset the window?
