Don't be afraid, replacing the battery is simple although it requires attention. The car must be turned off and parked on a flat surface.

I will guide you through the steps. Open the hood and locate the battery near the engine.

Using an Allen key or a wrench, disconnect the negative cable first, usually black, and then the positive cable, usually red. Remove the blocks holding the battery and lift it gently. Place the new battery, secure it, and reconnect the cables, starting with the positive one. Check everything, close the hood, and start the car to see if everything works.

If you don't feel comfortable doing it all by yourself, and it's understandable, contact a trusted electrician.
