How to Change a Car Battery | DIY Car Repairs | The Home Depot

Learn how to change your car battery in a few simple steps. Before you begin, you’ll want to assemble your tools and make sure no metal objects are touching both the black/negative (-) and red/positive (+) posts on the battery at the same time, even if you think your battery is completely dead. This is very dangerous as it creates a current that can spark, heat or even explode. For more auto tips, see our DIY Car Repairs playlist: https://thd.co/38EvoNw
