How to Replace Your Battery

Changing your car battery is simple and quick in most cases. Here are some basic steps to take.


  • Locate your battery, some are under the hood some are in the trunk depending on your vehicle. 
  • Disconnect the the positive and negative battery terminals
    • be careful not to round off any nuts
  • Move the terminals out of the way so that they will not bump into the battery. 
  • At the base of the battery there should be a bracket with typically two bolts. 
  • Remove the bracket and then remove the battery.  
  • Set the new battery in place and secure the bracket
  • be sure to connect the terminals correctly starting with the negative. 
  • Spray terminals with battery terminal protector
