Where is the Battery Located in the Ford C-MAX?

Model: Ford C Max MK 2 - Years 2010-2019
Part: Battery

In the latest models of the Ford C-MAX, the 12V battery is no longer located in the traditional spot in the engine bay; instead, it is found in the rear of the car, inside the boot. As shown in the attached video, to locate the battery, go to the boot and open the small door on the right side of the frame. If you need to proceed with a replacement, first remove the frame by unscrewing the four upper bolts, then disconnect the terminals using a 10mm spanner and finally remove the mounting bracket, secured by a long 8mm bolt.
