Next thing you can do is tune-up the oscillator card, you need the service terminal to do that and the crown service manual.

I suggest that you connect your meter leads to the battery cables and watch the voltage as you drive either direction.

More than a 20% decrease in voltage when a motor is energized indicates a seriously depleted battery.

I'll also suggest that you take a look at the water levels for each cell.

Lots of people ignore battery maintenance.
