How do you change the starter battery of the Opel Corsa C?

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa C - Years 2000-2006
Part: Battery

How to change the battery of the Opel Corsa "C" version? Let's see it in this short video. We open the hood, and we see the battery on the top left, and to remove it we have to unscrew the support plate. We start by removing the negative terminal from the battery and keep it well away from the battery itself. We then remove the positive terminal. Unfortunately, we have to disconnect the windshield frame to remove the battery: we will have to remove the screws at the ends and the frame gasket, and finally remove the frame. Now we can remove the battery. We remove the oxide from the terminals with sandpaper, then we coat the terminals of the new battery with copper grease. We insert the battery; we connect the positive terminal, then the negative one, we put back the battery support plate, then we reassemble the windshield frame and finally the gasket. Job done.
