What goes away when the battery is disconnected (e.g., for replacement)? I know that the HUD display, readiness codes and LTFTs are reset, but what else? AC actuators... radio station presets... seat/mirror memory settings???
Is there any safe method of applying a keep-alive voltage to prevent this while swapping out the battery?

I do not have the mirror/seat memory function so I don’t know about that. Your radio presets are saved, but if the radio has the Lock Code enabled, you will need the code before hand to unlock it.
Thanks for the input so far. I'm probably not going to replace the battery for at least a week, so if anyone has any further feedback or experience re the memory functions... POST UP.
Key fobs need to be relearned. The memory for the seats was fine on my car. I thought if you changed the battery with in 10mins everything would be ok but that could be info from one of the other cars I have.
