Stupid question probably, can I remove the battery to clean the terminals and re connect without any on board computer issues?

Hi all,

 

Never done it with this vehicle before, but not sure if it will mess up any on board computer settings? They're slightly grubby and wanted to clean the terminals and connectors and pop some dialectric silicone grease on them. Thanks 

Hi NightShadow, welcome to the forum. From other postings on this question, you will probably get multiple fault warnings light up when you reconnect the battery terminals - but these should all clear after a short drive.

If you wish to avoid this possibility, you could keep the car system 'alive' by connecting a 12-volt supply to the power socket, but this is not really necessary.    

Should be grand. Did a battery swap with no issues like that
