However, we will wait for the weather to warm up a little bit first, as it is much nicer working on cars when you don't have snow round your ankles.
We have started off by removing the battery from the vehicle which is a very simple process;
Remove the negative earth lead first followed by the positive lead, you will require a 13mm spanner for this task. Next remove the 10mm nuts that secure the carrier bracket. You may find there are two pairs of nuts on each side, the second nut is there to lock against the first, a form of secondary locking fixing. A single Nyloc nut on each side will perform equally as well. The battery is very heavy so grip it tightly, keeping it well away from your clothing and children when you have removed it.
