Battery discharge warning after changing fuel pump...

My streak recently has been with something going wrong no matter what I do.

Before I did the job I disconnected the negative terminal of the battery and connected it after everything was done

I do have a black view battery pack but that runs off of a fuse and it's independent of the battery it only charges when the car is in ignition position too and when the car is running. What I did notice is that my battery pack was about 50% when usually it's near 100 since I'm driving at least 4 hours a day for work so I'm not sure if for some reason with the battery disconnected it still wanted to charge itself while the dash cam was running due to the work being done in the car.

After I put the car back in the garage I did use a C-TEC battery tender and charge it up 100% but I'm still getting the warning.

I'm not exactly sure what needs to be done because the battery is definitely charged. I might disconnect the power connector to the dash cam and see if maybe that helps. The car is also cutting power to a lot of other electrical items such as the interior lights so they're not working.

Start it like the dashboard says and drive it around. It can take a while after the battery has been disconnected for everything to come back to normal. I've had some items that had to go through three or four start/stop cycles.

Follow up; placed it on a tender overnight, still got the warnings in the am but after a 10 min drive it was clear after restarting the car. Thank you.
