Good day MIdas,I ended up calling WIllard and they arranged with MIDAS kempton park for the battery to be tested and replaced with a proper battery.I took it there and they tested,the reading was bad (replace) with an extra charge of R500. i now have a new battery i wasted my time and money going back fourth with Midas ladysmith(they even suggested i drive down to ladysmith on my own accord from joburg (Time,patrol and tollgates) just to change the battery they incorrectly sold to me,even though i told them my car started having electronic issues due to the battery .MIdas Ladysmith did not care(i told them if my cars stops working due to this i will claim the entire car from them
