First time? Watch for these
- Don’t let a wrench touch both posts, or a post and the car body, at the same time: it sparks.
- Tighten the hold-down so the new battery can’t move.
- Take the old battery back to the store. Most charge a core fee until you do.
- Some cars need the radio code or the power windows reset after. Your owner’s manual says how.
