Interestingly I had same fault on a similar car last week.Customers only complaint was the odometer/trip display went to dashes after start up.Also something else I noticed was that it was not possible to toggle the left display from degrees F to Celcius.A new battery fixed it.A test on the battery with an old fashioned "stabber" showed it to be a little under par,however when I used my Snap-on digi tester it failed the battery on the conductance test.I don't think this is a voltage issue.I have jump started loads with flat batteries and they all don't show this characteristic.I beleive the fault is more to do with the battery acting as a capacitor and smoothing out any ripples from charging circuit.Stand to be corrected!!
