I have moved my 2005 to a storage facility for about 3 months and was told I could put the battery to sleep with the app, but I cannot get pass the PW to open the “control” I forget the PW to get into the Control menu, if I had that would it work, or should I just put it on a weekly timer? It is a SSi battery igot about 3or 4 years ago from Inwo, ---

Which battery is this? 3 or 4 years ago? Then you probably/most likely don’t have the push button start on the BMS. Those would show up on the ones at least a year/two old. As an alternate, the BMS could be shut down by unplugging it, but it takes a 9v battery “Jump Start” procedure to get going again. Not as convenient, but not difficult either. If you had a start button, it would be a silver thing with a blue(sometimes red) glowing ring around it.
