Bingo! That has got to be the doggone quickest recovery I remember - just disconnecting the pram battery for a bit. But I nearly had a hilarious train wreck getting there - it has been long enough since I replaced it that I forgot that this is definitely Not my Wallstreet... At first I was accidentally following my old instructions to replace a battery in a WS....... what's to not love about a Pismo after having changed a battery in a WS! I am ignorant about most things electronic, but I sharpened up the tips on my little Cen-Tech multimeter to be like little needles and inserted them in the 3 holes of the pram battery's connectors, ( I've no idea how a battery can need 3 leads), but in various combinations I got 0.4 to 1.2 mA, readings. What should a new one read as? Is there no way to tell - while the Pismo is running - what the little battery's charge is? Thanks so much folks, I got my baby back, Del (I checked the memory card's seat and it was rock solid.)
