Video tutorial

In this video, you will learn how to restart the battery of a Lexus CT200H with a flat battery. On these vehicles, the starter battery is located in the boot, and in the engine bay, you will find a relay that acts as a positive terminal, which you can use to start a flat battery.

Once you remove the cover of this component, connect it to a power bank (or booster) that you can find, for example, on Amazon with the code B0CG5QHGJ5 for £59.99, with free delivery for Prime customers. Connect the red clamp to the positive terminal you just uncovered, while the black clamp can be easily connected to any metal point, which will act as a negative terminal.

A bolt, as shown in the video, will work perfectly. Start the booster and let it charge the battery properly.

You can check it with a multimeter, or take your vehicle for a drive for about half an hour.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
