I found the original battery, it’s a 3.5 volt “Keeper” brand. High quality lithium battery, shouldn’t be a big deal, soldering a new one in. Can’t keep the heat on it longer than 5 seconds, and supposed to use new solder, not re flow. I’m gonna let my wife do the job. That way, I can blame her if it doesn’t work, Lol. waiting on a call back. Detroit Dealer was no help, offered a rebuilt for $1900. Just what I suspected. Got to do everything yourself these days!!!

So true..your wife should get it up and going. Just remember to seal the ecm back up to keep moisture out.

Pittsburgh Power replaces the battery if you want to pay someone to do the job.

What I’m wondering now is what a good pulse width setting to use to add fuel, without blowing up my new engine. I guess factory setting is 40, and max is 65. I don’t know jack #### about electronics, Lol. But my mechanic, has the computer to change parameters. Don’t really know if He can change the pulse width, or if I should. Just wondering. Trying to learn.Just want a little more power, fuel economy.

Thanks, that’s the one I thought it was, couldn’t get a clear picture of part #. You helped me out a lot. Otherwise, I would have to wait till I get ecm off on Monday. Now I can order the battery. The battery store. Com $15. Thanks again!!
