First check the battery for signs of damage. If none, then wash the batter with water and baking soda to neutralize the battery acid. Pry off the battery cell covers carefully. Watch out for acid. Clean out any large dirt particles and around the holes. Fill the cells with distilled tap water to just above the plates. Minerals in tap water will corrode your battery. Do not overfill. Finally replace the cover and use a radiant energy battery desulfator to recharge.

What is a dead cell in a lead acid battery?

A dead cell in a lead acid battery is a cell that no longer produces electricity. Lead acid batteries contain a series of cells. These cells are like large flash light batteries. Each cell contain one plate made of lead and another made of lead oxide. They also contain sulphuric acid. As they are discharged the lead and lead oxide goes into solution. and when they are charged they are redeposited onto the plates. Eventually the charging system simply stops returning the lead to the plates or the cell shorts out. Then it stops producing electricity. When it stops working it is called dead.
