IMA details: IMA and check engine light were on. Honda dealer diagnosed main battery degraded. Replaced secondary 12V battery and all lights are currently off. IMA will start engine and charge/discharge with low capacity. Expect IMA and check engine light to come back on soon. Buyer will need to either repair or replace the IMA to get the car fully functional. You can also remove the IMA battery and drive the car as a 3-cylinder, but it is under-powered.

I’ve made no attempt to grid charge, repair/recondition/revitalize the battery. Battery was new Oct 2012.
