Thanks for the information---how did you find an approved charger? I've alternated between Odyssey's, (because they seem to be recommended), and the OEM gel batteries, mainly because I've never been particularly impressed with either- so I wind up deciding to go back and give the other a chance. I'd try swapping here just to check boxes, but like I said, this is an new battery so it's not like I'd just be replacing it slightly early. Thanks again
You need a charger that specifies it will provide 14.7V for charging AGM batteries. Many (CTEK is one; I have the CTEK MUS4.3) have a "snowflake" mode which provides this voltage. These chargers are not cheap, but are the right tool for the job. I'd get one regardless of the status of your ABS module.
The ODYSSEY website has excellent resources for reconditioning the PC680 or other AGM battery. http://www.odysseybattery.com/Support/TechnicalInfo
