Replacement of the battery of a Ford Escape with a 48 AGM group

Model: Ford Escape MK 4 - Years 2020-2026
Part: Battery

In this video, we can see how the owner of this Ford Escape replaced his 12-volt battery, which often went dead, with a 48-volt AGM group. The battery of the Ford Escape is located in the trunk, bolted under the spare tire, which must be removed. Once removed, we must of course disconnect the negative pole of the battery before proceeding with other operations, then we can remove the metal plate that secures the battery to the frame of the car. The battery is then secured by two additional bolts. The new one we are going to install is larger, so we will need to open the hole for fixing it in the furthest position. Let's secure it, reconnect it, and secure it with the metal bracket. Now we can put the spare tire and the trunk floor back in place.

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
