Display keeps going to speedometer? might need a battery

Hi all just wanted to share my recent experience. I was having a issue when I would turn my truck off and next time I would get back in it would automatically turn the display back to the speedometer with the numbers. Really annoying because the numbers always catch my eye when changing. Anyway went out to start my truck the other morning and it just clicked. Got my battery tested and it was toast. Put a new one in and the issue with the display changing has gone away. So if you are experiencing the same issue you may need a new battery. Maybe it will help someone not get stranded in the future.

 

This is a great sign for us who are flirting with battery life. Thanks for the tip. So what battery did you go with?

 

I could have sworn it always goes back to that screen

 

I just got one at Oreillys. I remember doing some research when my wifes went out and most battery brands come from the same manufacturer. This is actually my third battery. The first one that came with the truck crapped out within a month or two from the lot. The dealer replaced it.
