How to Replace the Battery on a Ford Kuga

Model: Ford Kuga C520, MK 2 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Battery

To replace the battery on a second-generation Ford Kuga, first remove the air filter box by unscrewing its mounting screws and disconnecting the air hose, detaching the sensor and the oil vapour recovery hose first. Once done, remove both the battery cover by lifting it and pulling it towards you, and the front flange along with the first battery terminal. Now unscrew the two bolts of the upper battery bar to remove it, then disconnect the last battery terminal. Finally, remove the old battery and replace it with a new one by following the steps in reverse.

Pull down the red straps that allow you to lower the two rear seats, which we cover with the expandable load floor. Now, go to the second row and take the black strap to push the first seat forward and fold it onto itself. At the back of this, there is a panel continuing from the load area. Do the same with the centre seat and then move to the other side to complete the operation with the last seat. The reverse operation is very simple to put all the seats back in place.
