thanks to cn555ics and 335okc, i was able to figure out a way to register my battery without running into the "ERROR_ECU_CONDITIONS_NOT_CORRECT....." error.

i read post #217 and downloaded cn555ic's recommended file from post #165.
turns out my INPA version was too new and downgraded the INPA files and registered the battery successfully both ways for the heck of it using tool32 and inpa.
both gave me the golden "OKAY" status.
my only question is...i used walmart's everstart maxx h7 which replaced the maxx 94r. it is rated at 790cca however i couldn't find a reserve capacity or an aH rating and resorted to searching up a few different brands that have the h7 battery hoping for a ballpark guesstimate since alot of these batteries are manufactured by the same company. i ended up finding a few different brands with the same 790cca and LxWxH spec and came up with a common 140 reserve capacity.
using the formula (RC/2)+16 i can assume this battery is at about 86aH.
since our vehicle doesn't have a 85ah, what klasse_batterie setting would you guys recommend: 80ah or 90ah?
