To replace the battery in a Ford Escape, lift the hood to access the engine compartment. The battery is located near the left headlight; to remove it, disconnect the connectors and unscrew the bolts securing it in place.

This allows you to slide the battery out and replace it with a new one. Once the new battery is in its housing, connect it to the appropriate terminals and secure it by tightening the bolts.
