To replace the battery on an Alfa Romeo 159, open the bonnet and locate the battery in the engine compartment. Remove any plastic covers protecting it. Completely switch off the vehicle and disconnect the negative terminal first, followed by the positive terminal.

Unscrew the fastening system at the base of the battery and lift it out carefully. Place the new battery in the same housing and secure it properly.

Connect the positive terminal first, then the negative, ensuring that the terminals are tightly secured. Refit any covers and turn on the instrument panel to check for proper operation without error messages.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake.
