How do you change a battery on 2002 Hyundai elantra with the positive post stripped?
I used a channel lock pliers to rotate the cap back and forth. After it would rotate on the post, I was able to pull up with the pliers and remove the cap. You could also cut the nut off the shaft to relieve the tension. On the inside of the cap is another cap that has slits on the sidewall and a threaded shaft on top. The threaded shaft fits thru the hole in the outer cap and the nut is used to draw the inner cap inside the outer cap. As you tighten the nut on the top, it pulls the cap up into the outer cap and squeezes the inner cap against the battery post.
