I purchased a new battery in July of 2021 (first time I needed a battery since purchasing the car in Dec of 2007) however, because I hardly drive my car the battery has gotten low. I jumped it and it started. Ran it for about 30 minutes - but did not get a chance to drive it. I think I need run it more fully charged it in order to fully charge the battery. I'm going to jump it again and then drive it for about an hour and see that will assist it in maintaining a charge. I expected the battery to not have issue since my original battery had such a long life with not problems. And I believe the only reason the original battery went out was due to lack of driving it much. I had never had any issue with the battery. I currently have about 56,000-57,000 miles on my care. The current battery is only about 3 years old and hardly any use - so I didn't expect it to have problems.
I viewed your video and seems the steps you showed - I can do myself. I am wondering about that 2 features the plug that goes into the battery on the side and what I believe is a temperature sensor (the little red things you plug in on the side of the battery). Is that something on all 12v battery or is that something that requires purchasing the battery from Toyota in order to get the appropriate battery for my car? Or, should I just purchase it from Toyota. It is so expensive - about $500. The current battery purchased in July of 2021is a Panasonic. It was 400+. Don't remember exact price but I"m sure I can install it and would do so IF I know i'm purchasing an appropriate compatible battery for my Camry Hybrid. Thank you for your insight and assistance.
