Hi guys, quick question. (It's about 20 years since I last did anything other than top up washer fluid under a bonet) I need a new battery, if I fit it myself am I going to run into trouble with things like key fobs and radio codes?

It's relatively simple job really I don't now about radio codes as mine has an aftermarket radio in the key fob shouldn't need messing around with as mine had always worked after the battery has been off

Thanks Job done, no problems. Tip from youtube disconnect the negative first and reconnect it last, in case your spanner hits the chassis while undoing the positive. Quite hard do do in the Jimny with the battery location but worth taking the precaution I thought.
