its worth trying to cycle the battery. Drain it all the way down to 90 volts, then charge it up slowly (until voltage stops increasing) and hold it for a few hours. You will need electrical skills or someone that can do it for you. You drain it with ordinary incandescent light bulbs and charge it with a grid charger or other power supply that can go up to 180 volts.
You may have to do this twice. More than likely you will get rid of the IMA light
