Where is the battery of the Ford Transit located?

Model: Ford Transit MK 5 - Years 1994-2000
Part: Battery

Unlike other Ford vehicles, the location of the battery in the Ford Transit model MK5 is inside the vehicle's cabin. The battery is located behind the driver's seat, protected by a box. In case it needs to be replaced, we must move the driver's seat forward and remove the box cover, after which it will be easy to disconnect the terminals and remove the locking nut to extract the battery. If it needs to be charged, simply remove the box cover and connect the positive terminal to the positive cable and the negative cable to a metal part of the battery.
