when starting my car, cannot
Most of the time there a nuts on the battery terminals , you only have to loosen them up and pull on the terminals away from the battery, they should pop right off afterwards.
Very simple. Just unscrew the bolts on the two terminals, pull it out, remove the battery and after replacing the battery, reconnect the terminals one at a time and tighten the bolts on the terminal.
Clean battery terminals, then tighten down the battery cables. With the ignition key---like any other time.
only if it's off The plastic body of the battery, or one of the terminals, yes, BUT... disconnected from the vehicle or not, DO NOT allow any metallic object to touch BOTH of the battery's terminals [Positive and Negative] AT THE SAME TIME. This is because that touching both terminals at the same time with any conducting metal such as a wrench will create a SHORT CIRCUIT, and COULD cause the battery to explode, throwing shrapnel and battery acid everywhere for several feet around the shorted battery.
Power does not go to the battery, it comes from the battery, except when the car is running. At that time power does go to the battery from the alternator. Disconnect the + battery terminal.
The charge over time can affect the performance of a battery by gradually reducing its capacity and ability to hold a charge. This can lead to decreased battery life and overall performance.
No. But if left for a very long time any battery will go dead. you have to leave the battery hooked up to terminals for that the battery will contantly charge while being used in your car otherwise the battery will eventually go dead.
A capacitor discharges over a period of time if there is resistance between its terminals, and instantaneously if the wires are just brought together. It's the same identical situation with a battery. When used to power a circuit with a reasonable rate of energy consumption, the battery lasts a while. But try laying a screwdriver across its terminals and THEN see how long it lasts.
If you touch both the positive and negative terminals on a car battery simultaneously, you can create a short circuit, which can lead to a sudden release of energy in the form of heat, sparks, and potentially an explosion. This can cause serious injury or damage to the battery and surrounding components. It is important to always handle car batteries with caution and avoid touching both terminals at the same time.
I dont have a clue but, I have a massey ferguson 298 1983 tractor that has a 24v starting system. I have resorted to disconnecting the terminals from one battery and then placing both batteries , one at a time on a trickle charger. Once you disconnect the terminals from one battery you can leave the other battery connected charge both then reconnect.
Remove the rear seat buy pulling up on one side at a time. Underneathe is the battery, just take off the terminals and replace.
Don't think so but it can make a battery go dead. I heard you should unhook the battery terminals if it isn't going to be driven in a while.
