OEM Replacement Battery

So to make a long story short, as some of us know by now factory batteries are crap...my 08 TL-S battery has gone dead on me 3 times since I've owned the car, which is not a lot to what some of you may or may not have experienced??? But anyways so on Monday my battery was dead again, no power at all, no lights etc. So I call Acura Care and my dealership and service adviser says to have it towed this time to see what is wrong, as last time I had it jumped and the drive to the dealership charged the battery and they were unable to duplicate the problem. So they determined that the battery may have been defective so they replaced it, heres my question:

On my receipt it has several codes that was RESET due to replacement, and man the car drives like it never has before I'm assuming one of the following codes was an ECU reset but don't know, anyone on here have any idea what the following codes are: Body Electrical codes...1007,1005,1008,1010,1011,1006,1150,1177,22 07,and 1800?????????

I figured it was probably pointless to ask this question, probably should have asked my service adviser before I left but thought I'd give it a try here, so any Honda/Acura techs here at AZ??

you can google the codes but most of them will be false, as low battery throws all the sensors into mayhem

dont jump start the car- if dead battery, it will put the hurt on alternator trying to recharge it

like I said- when the battery is low voltage, the sensors go nuts and generate huge amounts of false codes of no importantance-

once new batt is in and driven 45 minutes to fully charge it- then a scan for codes will tell if anything is really wrong with alt or volt reg or ???

Something is causing the batt to keep going flat..overnight?
what interior light- or trunk or underhood light is stuck ON when parked?

Others have reported problems with HFL units staying on after car is turned off. Just another place to look along with a sticky light.

That's exactly what it is, the HFL unit. My battery died three times within a year, the dealer finally replaced the HFL and no problems since. It's on a TSB.

Dealer just replaced my battery today (under warranty). 3 yrs and 30k miles on the original is a bit less than I would expect, but not terrible.
