I need to change the battery on my ford transit, help?

I have a 2001 ford transit and have located the battery, but don't know how to get it out, can anyone help?I need to change the battery on my ford transit, help?
You need to slide forward the driver`s seat to expose the battery loosen the 13mm bolt at the base of battery , then loosen the earth strap bolt ( might be 13mm or 10mm ) Then loosen the positive terminal the same way . lift out the battery .

Make sure you have the code for your radio as you will loose this when you change the battery .

Insert the new battery connect the positive lead first , then the negative , then put the clamp back on .

to install the code for the radio :

if your code is for example 2345 press the number 1 button until it get`s to number 2 , press the 2 button till it get to number 3 , on so on press the number 5( on some model`s it is number 6) to enter the code .

If however you do not have the code take out the radio and email me the serial number and i will send you the code for your radio ( for free ) some places will charge you 拢15 for the code !

. to remove the radio :

Get a metal coat hanger cut 2 length`s ( using pliers or side cutter`s ) approx 6'; long bend the wire into a '; u '; shape and insert them into the holes at the side of the radio pull them both at the same slightly pulling them opposite each other then remove the radio .

to re insert it just push it back into it`s slot and it will click into place !I need to change the battery on my ford transit, help?
The Earth? Brits sure talk funny.

Anyhow, you always take the ground/negative/earth/black lead off first and put it on last. The reason is because if you short the wrench to the chassis while you're taking the ground off, it doesn't matter. And once the ground is off, it doesn't hurt if you short the wrench to the chassis while you're taking the positive/+/red/hot/sky? lead off.
why dont you read the manual guide ?
good god if you can not change a battery you realy need help.

can you drive?
Disconnect the battery first then down the side off the battery

There should be a 13mm bolt which screws into the battery shelf

May need a ratchet handle and long extension ber for this

The 13mm bolt hold the battery in place with a clamp that Clamps over the edge of the battery so it can't fall off.

Before refitting the battery make sure everything is switched of in the van and if it has central locking keep the door key in your pocket best of luck.
Lift the drivers seat up exposing a cover lift that gently,exposing the battery loosen the negative terminal first(black) then Positive then you need a 10mm socket and ratchet or like.Look inside batt compartment toward centre you will see a 10mm bolt remove,Next look on outside of batt comp toward drivers door you will see another 10mm bolt next look back inside batt comp toward rear the final 10mm bolt will be visible remove all these and the clamp will lift out enabling removal of battery.
Disconnect the earth first,then the live,loosen clamps at base of battery and remove.Do the opposite to refit.
On most Fords there's a securing plate with a bolt through it that grips the bottom lip on edge of the battery at one side, it is usually a 13 mm nut, be carefull not to drop it. It's right at the bottom edge of the battery, clamping the battery to the battery tray, and it's usually quite corroded and difficult to reach, so give it loads of WD40 first, and take a torch.



Good luck.
I am from the US and we can't buy a Transit which sucks because the Sprinter is the closest match and there is a supply problem and can't buy one. I need one for my mobile auto repair business. Never seen a Transit but I can give you basic info on replacing your battery. Over here Fords have 3 styles of battery hold down clamps. The most popular the other guys already spoke of. Some vehicles there is alot of crap in the way where these stupid auto engineers can't build a car where mechanics like me can't do a simple job without charging the customer alot of labor. Heck a few cars you have to take a tire off, go figure. If your van is like that, just think about what will make your job easier. Remove everything close by. That battery is heavy and you don't want to break anything if you accidently drop it pulling it out. If it is the one that has the 13mm clamp bolt then just follow their instuctions. The other type that is similiar is the one that has either a 8 or 10mm long bolt to the hold down block. These break pretty easily so spray it down with lube first--%26gt; You have to think like these stupid engineers. The last type which is like most other cars is that it has 2 long bolts with hooks on them with a bracket connecting them. Those hooks go into the battery tray and nuts at the top tighten down to hold the battery in place. Your van is somewhat new so you shouldn't have too much of a problem with bolts breaking but you never know. Just remember hard turn = hard lube.

Most batteries are held in place with some type of clamp which is bolted to the tray that it resides on. You would, therefore, need to disconnect the terminals (positive first) then undo the bolt(s) holding the clamp in place. The battery should then just lift out.
all you need is a 10mm spanner for the terminals and a 10mm socket for the clamp which is down the side of the battery,, if you lose your stereo code let me have the serial number of stereo and i will give you the code
yes, where are you

How do I open the remote fob to change the battery for my 2007 chevy colbalt?

There doesnt seem to be a way?? I tried a coin (too small) and a small screw driver... Is there a secret?How do I open the remote fob to change the battery for my 2007 chevy colbalt?
You mean for the remote clicker? I took my boyfriend's and threw it against the wall and it opened right up. That was of course by accident and I don't advise you do it to yours. I have the same clicker as you, I have a Saturn and that's a universal part. If you look at the bottom right corner of the remote it has a wider opening for you to insert something to open it right up. It's gonna take a little elbow grease but once you find something to pop it open it'll work. Did you try the car key itself? Or perhaps a butterknife?

There are some electronics shops that can unlock your stereo, try to search the internet, but still, best place to go is your dealer. Call different dealer, they may need to remove your stereo for serial number but I think they can get the code even if the radio is from different car.
track the original owner down. u can do so by carfax.com or the DMV or the mercedes dealer itself with the serial number. most ex owners are cool and will provide u with info on the car.

    If it's an easy job can you tell me how to do it step by step?



    also How do I find out what type of battery I need for my Grand Am?



    thanksHow do you change a battery in a 2001 Grand Am? See Details?
    I have an easy way for this to be done. drive the car to an auto parts store and when you tell them what car you have they will get you the right battery and install it for you. for example autozone or equivalent. If the car won't run you need to open the hood, take the bar off that covers the battery. Take the battery hold down off. and take the terminals loose. Make sure you take the negative off first, then lift the battery out. By the way you do not have the eco tech motor.How do you change a battery in a 2001 Grand Am? See Details?
    If its a eco tech engine its really simple you would need just and 8mm wrench and just make sure you tie the batt back down when your done.



    If its the v6 engine still kinda simple just a little more time is envolved with removing the frame support. If you have a small socket set shouldnt take so long. Or even better you could just take it to your local parts store and they can do it there.

    How do you change the battery on a 2003 Jetta keyless entry remote?

    I can't seem to find any screws anywhere on the device to open it up.How do you change the battery on a 2003 Jetta keyless entry remote?
    Its kinda tricky, you have to pull the key apart. You will see a line running vertically if you have the key held up longways. You need to pull at each end REALLY HARD and it will come apart in two pieces. Now the part that has the buttons you will have to use a small screwdriver and pry it apart . After prying it apart the battery is right there. If you dont feel comfortable doing it take it to a VW dealer and let them do it for you, it will cost like $20, but a new key is $90, and another $30 to get it programmed to your car.

    Go to your local auto parts store and ask for the positive and negative cables for your car (but you probably only need a negative, that one all ways seems to take the worst beating). When you get them you will see what is involved in changing them. Like how many connectors there are on them etc. It is not an overly difficult job and if you can change your own oil, air cleaner, etc. I don't think you will have any problems.How do i change the battery cables on my ford taurus?
    you have to cut the old ones off

    use BIG DIKES or bolt cutter

    replace w/ new ones
    Probably no need to change, but you may need to clean the connections at the battery terminals. For this you will need the correct wrench size plus a specialty wire brush designed to remove the corrosion at the terminals. Just be careful not to short across the terminals or you will get a shock. When clean test to see if you have any improvement. If not you may need to have you battery tested. Many auto supply stores will do this for free. If this is not th problem you may need a tune up or have a mechanic check to see if there are other issues,
    the cables probably just need to be removed and cleaned.your local auto parts store has a spray cleaner that will remove the corrosion.

    Be Careful,you wil be dealing with acid based corrosion.wear gloves.

    How do you change the battery of a fire alarm that's on the ceiling of the second floor? ?

    There is basically no second floor ground between this area of the house and the ceiling, and we don't have a ladder that reaches from the first floor to the second floor ceiling! What to do? The battery needs replacing and it keeps on beeping? :( Is there a place that rents out ladders or maybe a service that replaces batteries for smoke alarms in hard-to-reach places?How do you change the battery of a fire alarm that's on the ceiling of the second floor? ?
    may have to rent scaffoldingHow do you change the battery of a fire alarm that's on the ceiling of the second floor? ?
    you must have a Home Depot rental store near you somewhere you can rent a 12 ft extension ladder for about $8 and get this done or a 12' step ladder for about $15 and do it yourself. If the alarm is hardwired then you may need to replace it but it sounds like a battery. Don't pay someone to do this ...Its too easy to do yourself!
    They make long poles with attachments that are used to change light bulbs in very high places. Maybe there's an attachment you can use to grip and turn the smoke alarm? Most of them are easy to remove once you have the proper grip.
    You can buy a long pole at the Home Depot or similar store that is ment for changing light bulbs in high places. Use the pole to unscrew the detector (usually 1/2 turn) from its mouting plate. It is a bit tricky, but it can be done.
    I believe Home Depot would rent ladders, if not, check your yellow pages.



    ...and it would be much easier to move the alarm to a more convenient position.

    How often do I need to change car battery or car tyres?

    What ';signs'; do i look for that tells me I might need to change them... apart from having a flat or stalled car of course lol.



    p/s: I am a total car maintenance newbieHow often do I need to change car battery or car tyres?
    AS A GENERAL RULE---

    Most car batteries are good for from 3-5 years, depending on the quality and the degree of maintenance.

    As for the telltale signs of failure, there aren't many other than the car begins to crank over a little slow. The only other sign is the car won't start in the morning.

    There are signs that the mechanic sees, but you won't notice it because you aren't checking it and probably don't have the equipment.

    As for tires, those are easier to check.

    If you look closely at the tread pattern, at the bottom of the grooves, you will see little raised bars that run across the entire tread. When you can see them clearly, and they are as exposed as the tread, the tires are no longer safe or legal.

    These are the 'safety bars' that are cast into the rubber to identify when they have reached a tread depth less than 2/32';.

    You can also tell it is time when you place a penny with Lincoln's head toward the tread. If you can see the top of his head, you have less than 2/32'; remaining.

    It is smart to not allow them to get this worn, because this is the absolute minimum tread. It is best to keep at least 4/32'; (1/8';) tread depth, and then begin to look for sales.

    Replace them with the size recommended by the manufacturer, and replace them in matching pairs left to right.

    Keep them inflated properly (check the owner's manual or the driver's door post) for longer tire wear and safety, not to mention the fuel economy.

    Hope this clears things up



    Good LuckHow often do I need to change car battery or car tyres?
    I'm not too sure about car battery, but your tyres needs to be changed when they're isn't much grip on the tyres, when it's been worn down. This takes about 1 year I think. But if you don't want to fork out alot of money for new tyres every year, then go to your local garage and buy 2nd hand tyres, then still have grip on them and they're cheaper too :D
    Pushing a battery past 5 years is pushing your luck. There may be a date poked out of the decal on the battery.



    Tires just need some tread on them.
    car battery - 5 to 6 years if you check the battery and make sure the electrolyte is topped up and the terminals are clean



    car tyres - 50,000 to 60,000 km. and you have to make sure that the front wheels are checked and wheel alignment carried out once every 2 to 3 years to prevent uneven wear due to wheel out of alignment



    For car battery - if you start to find it hard to start and this is usually the early warning of your battery going flat or worn out.
    first know the road surface you're regularly driving. if it is concrete then it tends to wear out you tire faster than asphalt, if you go drive on rough roads then it would tend to shorten battery life batteries have a life span just a bit longer than their warranty period. tires life span is also, determined how often you use your brakes. consider also your tire pressure and wheel balance to achieve maximum usage of your tires.
    Look carefully at the tread of your car tires. Most manufactureres will have an indicator (or marking) on the tire, when it wears down to a certain point. It's always best to go to a proffessional.



    Batteries can have a life of up to 2 even 3 years. You'll need to add distilled water occasionaly. You might want to get a multimeter to measure the volatage that the battery still has.
    Down southern USA heat is hard on tyres tires and battery's liquid evaporates. So after you have 50,000km or 25,000 miles you should have tread on the tires checked and replace if tread is 2/32 inch or 1mm Batteries you may notice a different sound or slower than normal cranking of the motor. If you notice it is good get the battery inspected. But what usually happens you turn the key machine gun like clicks or one click and no lights or dim lights.
    A cars battery will vary in the length of life it delivers but generally 3 to 5 years at the outside is a normal life span and unfortunately they often give you little if any warning sign except the day it won,t start. As far as the tires go there are built in tread wear indicators that let you know when the tread is getting down to an unsafe point of wear. These are small bands in between the grooves of the tire tread that when flush with the tire surface indicate that it is time to replace the tires or if you have a tire depth gage less than 2/32 of an inch is getting about time to start looking for new tires.
    Try to find an honest repair shop, where you can have your maintenance done. Get to know them , Oil inspection includes

    tire check and battery inspection. There are many factors a new

    battery can fail just as a new tire can be defective. Weather is

    a big factor Regular inspections at 3000 miles when you have

    your oil service can keep you from being surprised by a bad

    battery or bald tires.



    Ase Master Tech.
    If u get up one morning and turn the key and it does nothing then its time for a new battery .



    Use them tyres till there bald as a babbys a$$
    the tires have ';tread wear indicators'; which are in the treads and exposed when they wear down. If they are flush with the treads it's time for new tires. As for the battery, if you have the kind you can check .You can add distilled water when it gets low.Other than that there is nothing you can do and replace it just when it no longer works

    If i change the battery of the laptop is it going to erase everything on the laptop?

    And one more thing how much does changing the battery cost?If i change the battery of the laptop is it going to erase everything on the laptop?
    no. your data is *not* stored in the battery!If i change the battery of the laptop is it going to erase everything on the laptop?
    Hard drives do not require power to retain memory (SSD does, I believe). Memory is stored through notches burnt into a rotating disc similar to optical drives, just more effective. You can take your hard drive out and put it in a different computer and your information will still be there.



    So in short, changing the battery will NOT lose your data.
    No it won't erase anything. New batteries range from $50 - $150.
    Cost can range from $30-$100 for a new battery. Go to the maufacturers website and click on support or accessories. It helps to know what model too.

    No, nothing is hurt by removing the battery, just SHUT DOWN first. Once the computer is quiet, go for it.
    It won't effect the files stored on your harddrive. Batteries can be as expensive as $100. and don't buy an off brand, buy a real Dell or HP or whichever kind of computer it is, the cheap ones that aren't the real brand dont last as long in my experiences.
    If you mean the battery you don't have to take apart the computer to change, it's fine. There's a small battery connected to the ROM, which is SSD memory, that ensures the basics will always be there (time and date settings, etc.) A regular hard drive will be unaffected, because they function in a similar manner to optical drives, except with MAGNETS. There's no burning, first guy that answered. The only way to really destroy a hard drive is to: A: destroy it (hammer or something), or B: take out the hard drive and put it next to a strong magnet or an MRI machine.



    Yes, you can switch the battery. That's why laptops have such a convenient and easy to use button or latch which releases the battery. Or mine does anyway.

With a paper clip or very small screwdriver, poke into the vertical side of the key near the bottom to remove the battery cover. It doesn't take much pressure to get it started. and don't force it. Once you have removed the cover the battery will slide out with a little shake.



    The trick is the clip is shaped like a right angle and clips at both ends. To remove get the bottom one started, then wiggle to the side to remove the side without stressing or breaking the cover piece.

    How to change the battery of an acer aspire 3620 series laptop?

    Uh usually you can do a battery change by yourself.



    I dont have that particular laptop. Though usually if you flip over the laptop to its underside youll see a long rectangle that is usually the battery. Next to it you should see a lock switch or what ever. Then you hit the lock switch and it should pop out.



    You shouldnt need to take it to a computer shop. As far as im aware most computer shops dont stock replacement battteries for laptops. I would check the Acer Website for replacement batteries or check Ebay if you have an ebay account.How to change the battery of an acer aspire 3620 series laptop?

    How do you change the key battery of a 325i 2002 bmw.?

    I need to change the battery.. ThanksHow do you change the key battery of a 325i 2002 bmw.?
    Well there are two possible answers here and it depends on the model you have.



    If you have a diamond shaped key (not including the blade) then the key has no battery which you can change and would require a new key or maybe re-pairing with the vehicle.



    If it is of the other kind (rounded on the end) then there should be a panel on the back which you can flip out. Remove the phillips screws x2 and you have access to the battery. Make sure you change it in less than one minute though, ie have the battery out of key for less than one minute.



    If you have a diamond key it may be worth trying to re pair it with the vehicle.

    Sit in the drivers seat.

    Open and close drivers door.

    Turn ignition on and off.

    Hold down unlock button

    Press lock button 3 times.

    How long do we need to change laptop battery?

    I have an Acer laptop for almost three years now and I can't use it if not charged. It will be dead otherwise. D I need to change it's batteries?How long do we need to change laptop battery?
    Usually, the life span of a laptop's battery would range from 2-3 years max depending on the type of handling and usage. Based on your description, I think you do need a new battery.How long do we need to change laptop battery?
    Usually you change it every 2-3 years because if you kept on charge all the time, it overcharged so its weak. i suggest change it and when it reaches a 100% charge take it of charge and use it with the battery power. That way the battery lasts 6-7 years.
    for a laptop battery, it usually used for two or three years. if it cant charge. you should change a new one.
    you know the laptop battery usually one year warrlty

    battery life usually 1-3 years

I can take the side covers off and that's it. I don't know if i need to get metric tools for the rest, or if I need to take the seat off. A step by step walk-throw would help me a lot.How to change a battery on a 2004 honda shadow?
    Your tool kit should be in a dark blue plastic bag behind the left side cover.



    Take off the side covers.

    On the right side is a battery cover with two bolts. Remove the bolts with a 10mm socket or wrench.

    Remove the plastic cover they hold and you'll be able to see the battery.

    Push the battery in, go to the left side of the bike and locate the negative post. Remove the cable.

    Remove the positive cable.

    The battery may have to be turned, a little, to clear your exhaust pipes when you remove it.

    I saved my instructions! Apparently it doesn't tell you which one to do, but it has PICTURES on how to use it. It looks like you twist off the cap. Then you pull the cap apart from both sides, then take a pen and press it in the little hole thing so that the battery comes out.



    If this doesn't make sense, then just view the pictures that I uploaded haha. If you end up taking the battery out, it will probably say what kind it is and you can find it at the drug store or something!

    if there is not a small screw, then check the edges for a small slot and use a small flathead screw driver to pry gently open. inside, you should find a circle shaped silver battery. walgreens or radio shack should carry them. a lot of times the dealer won't charge to replace the battery but they'll mark the battery up a few bucks.

    How does Thomas the Tank Engine open so I can change its battery?

    My daughter received a battery-powered Thomas the Tank Engine set from her grandparents--how had taken the liberty to set it up for her so she could play with it immediately. However, they neglected to include the information on how to open Thomas to replace the battery. Any help? I don't want to break it.How does Thomas the Tank Engine open so I can change its battery?
    If it's the blue one with the plastic blue track you have to squeeze the right center wheel and left center wheel. Thomas has 6 wheels so the 2 center wheels, after squeezing, will make the top portion pop off. Then you put in a size AA battery.



    That plastic blue track Thomas is my son's favorite...but really really really really hard to open. I don't have the strength in my hands to do it...my husband does it. You will feel like you're breaking it.



    Most of the other ones have a screw that opens. If the train has a coal car (henry and emily both do), you just pop the top off the coal car and use a size C battery.How does Thomas the Tank Engine open so I can change its battery?

    I don't have that one but every toy I have ever set up opens on the bottom, of the train look for a small screw and a small square the look like a door unscrew the screw and remove the door if it don't work go on to the web site goggle the toy and all the info on it will come up.

    hope you get it set up.
    Is it the kind that fit on the wooden track? If so, look for a screw (philips size) on the underside of Thomas near his face. The body shell should lift off. We use rechargable batteries as our train tends to be turned on and forgotten as it churns away in a corner.
    Most battery toys have a compartment that has a screw to hold it in place! check the bootom of the toy!! or possibly the back

    On that car, you have to jack up the car and take off the right front (passenger side) wheel, along with the plastic wheel well cover. You can remove the battery connections from under the hood but it's almost impossible to remove the battery from there.

    You don't need to take the wheel off, all you need is to turn your wheels to the right as much as possible. There is an access panel there. Take it off and you will have access to the battery. You might want to take off the air filter as well so it will be easier to get the clamps from the top.

    I work in a Jewelry store and have changes some watch batteries.



    Sorry pup! your stuck with it.



    Most high end watches have very special needs to them. If you don't let a certified service person do it, you void your warranty. Take it from me, you can't do it yourself anyway. Special tools are needed. Even if you chisel off the back yourself, the battery is held in with a special kind of ';rivet';. You can't get it out without ruining the watch. Then, you need the pressure sealer to close it.



    I suggest you call around and price check other companies. Also, the manufacturer will do the service if you contact them. However, you would have to send the watch to them and it could take up to 6 weeks to get it back. Also, they do charge but it might be less than a Certified Service department and you know the job will be done right.



    Lingo check, All work done on items is referred to as ';Service'; just means they do the change and check for anything else wrong. Normal.

    It is completely normal for an engine to be harder to start in any way when it's cold. The oil is more thick which will cause the parts to slide less easily against one another.



    As for the battery cover, I found a website that might help you, as I'm not sure of the answer myself.How to remove a Honda CG125 side panel to change/charge battery?
    I've found out in order to remove the battery cover you need to first remove the seat then the battery cover can be carefully pulled out.



    Although be careful not to lose the washers or the little metallic blocks with the holes in, that are just under the battery terminals
