Video tutorial

In this video we see how to remove the battery of the Mini Countryman: the battery is located on the left side of the engine compartment (looking at the car from the front) just below the windshield wiper. In the part closest to the body, we find a 10mm bolt that we must open to access the battery compartment, and another higher up, to be able to remove the cover and remove it. We must be careful, when removing this cover, of the windshield that is right above it, and therefore we must be very careful and pull it horizontally towards us, as the youtuber shows us. Disconnect the negative connector, then the positive one and then remove the fixing bolt located at the bottom of the compartment.

The battery should also be pulled towards us with great care.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
