First, to begin with the replacement, you will need a 10-millimeter wrench. Start by loosening the negative terminal of the battery. Then, disconnect the positive terminal. It’s important to start with the negative terminal to reduce the risk of sparking and blowing a fuse when you disconnect the positive terminal.

Then, carefully lift out the old battery. Pay attention to the little cover which is used in case of a battery explosion. Remember to place it back when you are putting in the new battery.
After that, insert the new battery and secure it properly. Ensure that the terminal connections are tight. Finally, check the voltage to ensure the alternator is charging the new battery effectively.
