Had this appear a couple of times after not using car for a few days. Car starts fine - main battery showing 12.4V. If I try to apply SBC it says "not available" as I expected. If I switch off and re-start after driving 5-6 miles the "1 malfunction" message clears. Just checked front aux battery after a 40 mile trip and the reading is 11.48V.
Q1 - Does a battery charger charge main and auxiliary batteries?
Q2 - If not is it worth trying to charge the SBC battery or is that asking for trouble?
Q3 - Could it be anything other than a failing battery - car is 2005 and this is original SBC battery - main battery changed after 6½ years
