Registering AUX Battery With BimmerLink or Bummercode

I am replacing a bad AUX battery on my 2020 X5M50i. Can that battery be registered with Binmercode or BimmerLink? Again, no need to change the type or amps of the battery, just register. I know the main battery can be registered, but I am curious about the AUX.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I don't think the AUX needs to be registered however I'm basing that on not ever seeing someone saying that they did it.

Ok, good info. I have looked in ISTA but it is conflicting about whether or not you need to register. BMW says yes, but I don’t trust them anymore.

I have been sifting through ISTA for info on removing the AUX battery and it has not been very helpful. It appears I need to remove the cowl to access the battery fully. Is it accurate that I need to remove the wipers to get the cowl off? I searched the forums and just cannot find any info.
