Sorry I missed your call. I left my cellphone at my daughters house, will pick it up on Monday. Check Mike D's thread about charging the IMA battery. I'm not familiar with that system. I think it has to be discharged rapidly and charged slowly.
1449 is "Overheated Battery" need the "blink code" (Again check with Mike D.) or tons of info on ICN. A lot of searching and reading. Light may go out on it's own. If not doing the 12V battery disconnect will suffice. Try not to use so much assist during the hot weather. About a month ago I installed a switch to turn on the IMA fan. I leave it on all the time as the 12V need is only available after the ign swiitch is turned on. Discussion about running the fan all the time is now being posted on ICN.

Hi Wille, just called you, left message. Error is 1449, not 47 and nothing I do will clear the error. I also have an extra pack that I got about a year ago, good voltage then, was supposed reconditioned by Honda and not installed by guy I bought it from. Voltage last night was 123 so I hooked it up to Mike D's charger that I made up, put in 350 ma with bat fan on. This morning it was at 167, ma was down to about 50. What is best way to recondition this pack? Just let it sit for day or so, let v drop and then charge it back up using the Grid charger? do that a couple times and then trade out the bat Packs?
Thanks

Rush, do you need the trans right away? I'm still trying to find a low mileage engine, so I probably won't sell the trans soon.
1447 is a "deterioated Battery".......To clear the IMA light. disconnect 12V battery for about 15 sec. Reconnect, I don't remove any fuses. (To old to get under the dash) With a warm engine, let it idle, the SOC should return to normal after a time. You could rev it to 3k in neutral also and get the same results. I've been doing the idle thing for a few years now. With a warm engine, watch your idle speed and as soon as the idle drops to 1K the battery is basically back to SOC and maybe full. The gauge will show "full" sooner than the idle drops to 1K. Sooner or later the battery will have to be replaced. I've run over 80k with a bad battery as I try not to use much assist.
How much do you want to pay for the trans?
Istall a "CARD" switch and just keep on trucking.
My # is 619-9168367.
