I wanted to order a new Li battery but in Europe it is not obtainable (shipping limited to US) so what now?
I have the 2 SRAM chips (the ones that are supplied by the Li batterty) on order but I read in the service manual that the SRAM chips are tested on startup and I have no fault codes for that. Can I conclude safely these are OK then?
I am a bit stuck now:
-the battery measures 3.6V, which is above the 3,5V spec. No indications of battery voltage too high or too low. Will replacing the battery solve my problem?
-the SRAM chips are tested on startup (walking'1' and walking '0' test). I have 2 SRAM chips on order but will replace these solve my problem?

Have you worked though the service manual diagnostics and theory of operation?
I¡¯m a bit surprised the Li-SOCl2 batteries aren¡¯t available. They¡¯re easily obtained here in the UK from various sources. Are there EU restrictions on them?
