screen and vent control intermittent failure

Well, where did you learn this? There were no F-Types built with a battery in the front - to begin with, there is no room for a battery in front (!). The two battery cars had both batteries in the trunk area, main battery to the left, second battery (related to the start/stop system) to the right.

@sov211 i think you’re misunderstanding what I said. I clearly understand what this post was about. I have put in a NEW antigravity battery in the car a few weeks back. I was having this issue before the new battery. I put the new battery in and I’m still having the same issue. Please disregard the front battery question. Maybe it’s an alternator problem? The gentleman that made this post had his alternator changed and then put in a new battery in. His car now works. I have put in a NEW battery and car is still acting up.
@frank barone thanks for the advice. I’ll be sure to grab one today.

At least two people think they have a secondary battery in the engine bay ...

Well, if we depend on what "people think" then we might believe that Covid-19 is a myth. It isn't a myth, but the idea of a front battery in the F-Type is. The people in question at the UK site have mistaken the front charging points for a battery. They are uninformed and the opinions of the uninformed have no value. They do nothing but obscure the facts. The F-Type batteries (or battery in the later cars) are (is) in the rear. One other thing that is not a myth is that low battery voltage in modern cars presents very often as random system failures - warning lights, frozen touch screens, windows, seats, locking mechanisms, climate controls malfunctioning ...all of which depend on electronic modules that need full battery voltage. People often think that because they have bought a new battery, the battery is therefore not a suspect. This is wrong. New batteries are almost NEVER fully charged on installation so any fault caused by low battery voltage may be/will be continued.
