This is because the resistor is replacing the thermister that should
tell the MP what the temperature the batteries are, the resistor you
are using just happens to give the same output the normal thermister
would when it's at 64C.

Notice that your responses are very much appreciated, thanks for that.

For first, is there a way to re-estabilish the battery temperature
monitoring?

Usually it will need a 10KOhm termistor soldered on the battery tray,
to have the Newton recharge the batteries, instead i soldered i 10Ohm
resistor.

[I am not a technician, so when i asked for a 10KOhm termistor at the
shop and then they sold me a 10Ohm resistor (.....) i did not
comprehend the difference between the two pieces until i saw a photo of
my resistor on googling]

So which are the differences on applicating the two pieces (10KOhm
termistor VS 10Ohm resistor)?
