Default 2020 Battery Replacement

If I replace the battery on a 2020 will iI have to reset anything once new battery is hooked up or should I do anything prior to disconnecting old battery?

Only thing you should need to do is index the windows.
The procedure is in the Owner's Manual - Driver's window down, hold for a couple of seconds, driver's window up, hold for a couple of seconds, repeat for passenger window.
This procedure enables the windows to come down slightly when opening a door and back up when closing the door.
All other functions, seats, steering wheel, radio presets, etc....... should remain as they were.

I did get a "Service Handbrake" message. Applied and released the brake cleared it.

A friend of mine is a professional computer geek in California. He HATES everything Apple with a white-hot passion, to the point where I wonder whether Steve Jobs had an affair with my friend's mom or something.

I think Jobs slept with most of the women in SoCal at that time at least once.
