can i reset it or should i get a grid charger? or do i replace it?
Also my honda is a 2002 with 130,000 miles on it i took it to honda and they said they would pay 25% of the cost to replace it coming to about $1900, they said my warrranty 10 year /150,000 mile warranty ended 3 months ago, the codes they told me were 1600 and P1499 but i think they ment P1449

If you are really out of warranty then speak with Eli at bumblebee or Matt at hybridrevolt their batteries will be around that price and much better to boot.
