Yep, I see what you're saying. But I guess what I'm trying to say is this. It definitely wasn't SRM in the context of what SRM is supposed to do. But what if it's a malfunctioning SRM? What if you have a malfunctioning SRM that thinks you downshifted even when you didn't, for instance? You could disconnect the battery, and that might (indeed hopefully) fix it. But unless you try turning the SRM off first to see if it changes anything, then for all we know, the battery disconnect fixed the problem by rebooting a faulty SRM. Of course, at that point if it fixes your problem it doesn't really matter right? I guess I'm just being anal about trying to hone in on the root cause.
