How to replace the battery on a Ford Transit MK8

Model: Ford Transit MK 8 - Years 2014-2024
Part: Battery

In this video, you will see how to replace the battery on a Ford Transit MK8: in this vehicle, the battery is located under the driver's seat rather than in the engine compartment, which must be removed or at least lifted from its housing. Underneath, you will find a complete T40 bolt, and once this is removed, you can lay the seat back on its backrest from both sides. There are still two 8 mm bolts to remove, allowing you to take off the safety plate and comfortably access the battery underneath, which is no different from a standard battery.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
