No, just going to replace due to age and running it completely flat last winter. Took four days to charge last 2023 December

It is four years old roughly, no newer than three.

I think mine failed due to a lot of splashed water around the block, and something MAY have shorted. I have ran another 4 or so years no issue, but I do have a failing solenoid to swap over. But as SF says, they are not robust.

May have blown the solenoid drivers.

Does it move in diff lock, could be a rear halfshaft if it moves with diff lock, that is most likely the issue

And in summer no problem for a week, just under zero c and having to glow plug for 15 seconds. Hence think battery
