easy job,get a curve extension but be VERY careful with connectors,if you car is older they might be brittle,engine starts about a half second quicker id say

It appears that this did not solve my problem,looks like the problem is that i dont drive the car at all and ecu apparently doesnt like the voltage after the car sits for 30 days without starting,it did start after 6-7 attempts,i fully charged the battery 30 days ago,not sure what else could it be

I wonder if you have some parasitic drain going on…usually a module that doesn’t fully go to “sleep” will cause that. Might be easier to just leave the truck on a tender if you know it’s going to be a while before you drive it again. 🤷‍♂️
