I changed the battery in my 2003 S a year ago. I pulled the old one and installed the new one. There was nothing to reset except the clock.

I believe the windows and the e gas throttle have a little bit of re-learning to do and it happens automatically. On my US 2003, besides resetting the clock, the only other thing I need to do when I disconnect and reconnect my battery is to find the secret procedure to make my CDR 223 radio stop intermittently beeping and flashing NO TP on its screen.
