Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Battery

Replacing the battery on this car model is a fairly simple operation and does not require any special precautions other than the fact that, to access the pin of the fixing bracket attached to the base of the battery itself, you must unclip and remove the engine management unit located right next to the battery; once you open the front bonnet, the battery is located on the driver's side, just below the brake fluid reservoir; disconnect the terminals, remove the management unit, and unscrew the fixing bracket to then extract the battery from its housing.
