- Mini 0803
My 0803 has been somewhat erratic recently: not auto starting, shutting down for no reason mid drive, etc.
I considered replacing it, so lived with the issue for a bit (I could manually re-start it and it would run for a while).
An unexpected strain on finances suggested I should repair, not replace, so £6 from eBay got me a new battery and 30 minutes with small tools, a steady hand, and a soldering iron got it fitted: (old battery to the right).![20180811_164258.jpg 20180811_164258.jpg](https://dashcamtalk.com/forum/data/attachments/40/40505-2304f902a7140eaed4eb918663aa3606.jpg?hash=IwT5AqcUDq)
