I have a couple older tenders from Griots Garage called battery tender III and it did not work. The charger just got really warm. See photo for what did not work for me.

This car has a AGM battery so a charger that supports that type of battery would be best.

NO. Just one or the other. the NOCO 5 cost 20 bucks more and is a little better.

I ordered it. Good price. Thank you. Looks like I will also do it to my F150 and Pony. Just need to order additional cable.

Ordered off Amazon for 69 bucks. The photos Show how I installed it.

Thank you for this post believe it or not. I have my Ford Mustang for 11 months now and I just recently found out that I connected mine incorrectly. I got both negative and positive terminal directly connected on the battery itself!! old school style. I hope I didn’t damage my car so far so good. It runs no problem. I have the NORCO 1amp

It won't hurt anything but the car won't know how charged the battery is so if it thinks the battery is low it will turn stuff off to save battery soon as you turn car off stuff like Ford pass location and lock may not work
