Bad battery? Clear the code and drive it around and see if it goes away.

Check voltage of battery first: low voltage can throw all kinds of codes. New Battery should be 13.7-14.2 volts.

Buy a trickle charger, started mine up and drove around the block yesterday. 1st start since last Oct, still the original battery manufactured in 2012.

That may work, but could be an expensive lesson ZME. Straining the starter and other components with low voltage will wear them prematurely. I just replaced my oem '13 battery with an 800 cca (75 more than oem) for $100.00. Cheap insurance, and jut what you got to do with your toys: maintain them. 4-5 years on a battery, especially at $100, is nuttin'.

Check the battery every year it’s perfect. A maintained battery will last a very long time, the key word is maintained. Maintaining the acid level/ changing it, and using a top notch charger that exercises the battery. For a battery that’s only getting used 6 months a year of the warmest months, and less than 1800 miles a year, it will be just fine.

Advance Auto with code (I had 30%) will get you right near $100.00.

Thanks everyone for the answers and different way to get it back to sniff
Late yesterday I went for a little drive and when returned home I turned the car off for a few minutes (~ 15) and restarts and just like that it was all clear !!! Just like that , just as added info this is my second battery , it’s about 2 years old , I think that because I don’t drive it much , and in the last 3 weeks I’ve just about pull it from the garage early AM. and bring it back in late in the days the battery went down . But it’s all good again and just needs more miles I guess
Thanks everyone for the input , stay safe out there

Thanks again
