I have an A300 with all digital console no key. I try to start it and it beeps loudly as normal but all the displays are like half there and only come on for a few seconds. I was taking battery out and removed negative cable to slide it out and reach positive cable. As soon as I moved it the battery started to make noise. No bs I thought an animal was in the engine compartment I put my ear almost on it and it was definitely the battery. It was a gurgling/growling bubbling sound. I have never heard anything like it. I had the battery tested and it tested 900 outta 924 CCA. Is that good enough? Any help is appreciated I dont have the money to take it to dealer Ive been out injured for 9 months.
 
The battery itself was making the noise? If it was sounds like it over charged and gassing pretty bad, probably lucky it didn't blow. When you say the dash beeps, any codes? Otherwise I'd clean the battery connections really good as those can mess with stuff. Also a possible bad battery cable.

Yes it was definitely the battery but its been sitting for months so I dont know how it would have overcharged. The dash always beeps when you press the yellow button on the right before the green start button. On the left side everything is kinda half screen top to bottom like the top of everything is cut off. I looked at it a couple of times and it may have said 78 79 but it was real quick and hard to read. It just acted like it didnt have enough power to run the electronics so I assumed it was the battery. All cables are good and clean. Could it be the electronics console?

Will a 76 73 code Left Display Panel System Rx In Error stop the machine from starting? I have a video of what its doing but dont see a way to add that here
