ACD lights on after installing....

Evo IX MR

Not sure if it's coincidence or not. But, I just installed an ETS small battery kit as well as a Spoolin Up COP.
The last few times I've started my car, the ACD lights all stay on. Turn off the car, turn it back on and they stay off.

Anything I should look for??

I would check the ACD relay fuse, I had a similar problem when I replaced my battery. the bolt holding the ACD fuse had come loose and was causing the acd lights to all come on.

Well, I'm still having issues....

I've noticed after not starting the car for a few days, when I start it, the lights will come on after a few seconds of the car running.
I'll then turn the car off then on again, then the lights don't come back on.
I can drive the car all day long, turn it off/on, etc. and never have the ACD lights come back on.

Anything else I should check??

Okay. Just checking. I once thought mine was fine but it was reading below "low" when the car was running. I was only looking at when the car wasn't running and had been sitting a while. I LOLed at myself.

good luck, man.

lol

The problem went away and it’s back!
I’ll start the car and they will immediately be on. Turn car off and on again and they’re gone and won’t come on all day.

I managed to pull the ACD code when all 3 lights were on.
Code 65.

I started using a battery tender thinking there was a possible issue with low voltage from the battery that was triggering the
ACD lights to come on. (ETS mini battery)
That seemed to do the trick and I would rarely have the ACD light issue.

I’ve since switched to an Odyessy PC680 and this battery is actually worse.

Code 65- abs monitor system open or short circuit
