How to install an oversized battery on a Fiat 500L

Model: Fiat 500 500 L - Years 2012-2023
Part: Battery

How to replace the battery of a Fiat 500L with a higher power one, FIAMM type L380P which also has a built-in check. We start by removing the battery to be replaced, disconnecting the negative, then we remove the positive pole. We remove the upper and lower clips. We remove the band that holds the battery in place, with a 13 mm wrench. We put it aside for later and remove the battery. Even though the new battery is more generous in size than the other, it fits in easily. Let's go over the whole procedure in reverse. We take the bracket and engage it, closing it with the 13 mm key. We engage the two clips. Then we connect the positive, and finally the negative. Job finished.
