Where is the Smart's battery located?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Battery

In Smart vehicles, the battery is located inside the cabin specifically under the passenger side footwell. To replace the battery, we need to move the passenger seat back and lift the carpet cover. After lifting the cover, we will notice that the battery is secured by a bracket. Replacing it then becomes a fairly simple and quick operation to perform independently. The battery location in Smart vehicles is the same for all models produced from 2007 to 2015. Other models place the battery in the trunk.

How to Replace the Rear Light and Bulbs on a Ford Focus Year 2000

To replace the rear light and bulbs on a Ford Focus 2000/2004, first, open the tailgate of the boot. This gives access to the screw that holds the rear light in place. The screw to undo (using an appropriate screwdriver) is located inside the light and corresponds to the fold that accommodates the tailgate (as shown in the images). Once you start to undo it, continue with the operation and then remove the nut from the inside of the bodywork. At this point, you can remove the light, being careful to disconnect the electrical supply by unplugging the connectors or removing the entire bulb holder from its housing. This way, you can replace the bulbs. To reassemble everything, simply follow the described operations in reverse order.
