Car Battery

I tend to be a diY guy because I am too stingy to pay someone else to do something I should be able to do. This approach works out fairly well... Unless we are talking about car repair.

I have never owned a car that was not essential so I have never had something I could tinker with. If my car is broke? I need it fixed ASAP!

My wife's battery died and with some guidance from a friend I was able to replace it. I guess that means I get to keep my Man Card for another year.

I took the old battery to the parts store and exchanged it for a new one.

The van battery is held in place in the van via a plastic clip. After putting the battery in its place, I tightened  the plastic clip's bolt.

The battery is now securely in place.

Next, I connected the first lead.

The second lead had a plastic cap that I needed to remove.

And then I was able to connect the second lead.

And that was it!
