Per my other thread here: https://www.sportsmaserati.com/inde...-open-bad-battery-connection-suspected.33854/
The offending, old Exide battery is just 2 years of age, purchased via Tayna batteries - I contacted them this afternoon and they seem willing to receive back the defective unit, and if proven faulty, refund my costs for the new and identical replacement battery.
However, the old battery on a battery tester is showing as fully charged at 12.63-12.64V. However, when hooked up to my CTEK it wouldn't ever get past Stage 3 'bulk' (Stage 4 'Absorption' is required to start the engine, according to the instructions)... and of course since sticking in a new battery, all my electrical issues have gone away.
It's still worth sending the old battery pack and pursuing a warranty claim, right?
