How to Replace a Battery on a Chevrolet Equinox

A car battery does not last forever, and you will need to get a new one at some point. In most cars, the battery is visible as soon as you pop the hood and look inside the engine compartment. On the Chevrolet Equinox, the battery is in its own separate compartment. But replacing the battery is a fairly simple task, so save yourself some money and do the job yourself.

Instructions

1

Open the hood and locate the battery compartment. It sits under the computer module on the drivers side, near the fender apron.

2

Unsnap the clips on the computer module and lift it away from the battery compartment. Lay it off to the side.

3

Remove the three Phillips screws holding the battery cover in place. Lift the cover off and set it aside.

4

Disconnect the positive and negative battery cables with a wrench. Lift the battery out of the compartment and set it aside.

5

Place the new battery in the compartment. Connect the positive and negative battery cables.

6

Reposition the cover on the battery compartment. Tighten the three Phillips screws. Dont overtighten the screws or you will damage the threads.

7

Reposition the computer module and make sure it locks into place.
