Jazz Crosstar 2024:
Going away for 3 weeks in desember. In order to prevent problems with 12V battery (can be very cold here in Norway, possible 10-20 C below zero) i do:
Fully charge battery with my Ctek
Super lock the car
My Honda+ app had no problems connecting to my car, so TCU (Telematics Control Unit) was enabled by my dealer and everything works fine
I don't need to monitor my car when away. It's parked in a place where, most likely, nobody will try to break into it. I will also cover my car when away.
This time of the year in Norway the weather can be very harsh, snow, rain, strong wind..., so I think it' wise to cover the car when I am away to prevent damage from ice
I know it's possible to disable the TCU in car. I assume this will reduce the wear on the 12V battery quite a lot, but really don't know whether it's worth it Anyone done any tests?
One more thing: super locking, something which has been discussed many times in this forum
In the manual for the 2024 jazz says:
Models with keyless access system ( which is standard on the 2024 Crosstar)
Touch the door lock sensor on the door handle or press the lock button on the
tailgate twice within five seconds.
My question: Should I touch the car lock sensor once or twice within 5 seconds after I lock with the Key Fob? Not clear from the instruction I believe (English is not my native language)
It annoys me that I can't se any indication (lamp in display) that super locking is activated. People talk about clonk sound, but I can't figure it out (feeling a little stupid)
