Fig. 25 Preparing Acid Neutralizing Solution
Allow the solution to set for at least three minutes; use a
soft bristle brush or cloth to wipe the tops of the batter-
ies in order to remove any residue that could cause the
self-discharge of the battery. Rinse the entire area with
low pressure clear water. All of the items required for
complete battery cleaning and watering are contained in
the Battery Maintenance Kit (P/N 25587-G01).
Cleaning should take place once a month or more often
under extreme conditions. After batteries are clean and
dry, the terminals should be coated with a commercially
available protectant.
Aerosol containers of battery
terminal protectant must be used with extreme care.
Insulate the metal container to prevent the can from
contacting the battery terminals.

Batteries are heavy.
Use proper lifting tech-
niques when moving
them. Always lift the
battery with a commer-
cially available battery
lifting device. Use care
not to tip batteries when
removing or installing them; spilled electrolyte
can cause burns and damage.
In the following text, there are references to removing/installing
bolts, etc. Additional hardware (nuts, washers, etc.) that is
removed must always be installed in its original position unless
otherwise specified. Non-specified torques are as shown in the
torque specifications (See Fig. 20).
1. Turn vehicle key to the off position and remove the
key.
2. Using an insulated wrench, disconnect the main nega-
tive (-), BL-, battery cable.
3. Using an insulated wrench, disconnect the main posi-
tive (+), BL+, battery cable.
4. Using an insulated wrench, disconnect and remove all
other wires connected to the batteries.
5. Remove the two Pan Head Torx screws, (one on each
side) from the Battery Strap.
6. Remove the battery hold down and the battery strap
by loosening all three hex nuts until they are at the
end of the J-bolt and unhooking the J-bolts from the
battery tray. When removing the J-bolts from between
the batteries it may help to tilt the battery to the out-
side of the car to release the pressure on the J-bolt.
7. Remove the batteries using commercially available
battery carrier straps (2 per battery) and a portable lift-
ing device. Remove the three front batteries (1, 2, & 3)
one at a time; then using the carrier straps tilt the last
battery (4) to the front of the vehicle just enough to
clear the rear body and using the portable lifting de-
vice lift the battery up and out of the vehicle.
8. Check the area surrounding the battery tray for corro-
sion. If any corrosion is found, it should be immedi-
ately removed with a putty knife and a wire brush (for
metal surfaces) or a plastic bristle brush (for plastic
surfaces). The area should be washed with a solution
of baking soda and water and dried thoroughly. All
