Gianni has it wrong. Other way round, undo the negative first so if the spanner touches the body/engine nothing happens, as its a negative to negative connection. With the negative disconnected then undo the positive, if the spanner then touches the body/engine the negative is already off so you don't short the battery out. If you use Gianni's method and start on the positive, then with one end of the spanner on the positive, if the other end touches any bare metal it will try to weld itself to your car. Scheesh, the c**p some people write.

I would disconnect the negative terminal before I do anything else on the battery. I don't want to blow up any fuse or damage any electronic components. Your ratchet almost touched the battery positive post at 3:25.

And don't remove each plastic terminal cap from the new battery until you're about to clamp on the lead.

I should have watched and listened to your direction before I tried to exchange the new battery for my 2017 RAV4. Because I just dropped the thin holding rod backside of the battery into the deep down the "crevasse", I had to get rid of the bottom plate for the battery to reach the "rod" stuck inside the narrow-open space. lol. 😅 So as soon as loosening the backside holding nut, you have to put the long thin rod away from the unwanted dropping by accident. haha. Thanks for the detailed explaination.

FYI, as far as I know, the life expectancy of car battery would be five to six years. So you replaced yours in about five years. So did mine in six years. Also you exchanged yours like about 64,512 miles(103,822 km). And I did the same job at 91,529 km(about 56,873 miles) here in Ontario. Interesting! Anway, thank for the video!👍

You also don't need to loosen the back Bolt that is on the rod just the front one then the rod will unhook

Dude you almost grounded out that ratchet on the battery bracket with the Positive terminal on the battery

You NEVER remove any parts at or around the battery, you FIRST disconnect the negative terminal and move it aside. Period. Dropping tools or parts around the battery may cause shorting between the terminals, possible exploding the battery or starting a fire. Had this happen at our shop, due to poorly trained trainee mechanics. Dangerous in this video. Don't do it that way.

NO! Remove the NEGATIVE CABLE Before doing ANYTHING ELSE! Then REVERSE order with Negative Cable on LAST! THST IS THE SAFEST WAY.

I would never replace the battery cables without cleaning them and applying anti corrosion. That’s why your cables and bolts are corroded.

When replacing a battery, remove the positive first and then the negative. When installing, you do the reverse.
