Today we will explain how to replace the battery of the 2017 Toyota Rav4. We start the battery replacement by unscrewing the nut on the battery clamp using a 10mm wrench. Using the 10mm wrench, we unscrew the nut to disconnect the negative pole.

Disconnect the positive pole and make sure it is well away from the battery when we remove it. Remove the battery from its seat and insert the new one only after checking the condition of the terminals: if damaged they need to be replaced, if rusty they need to be cleaned.

Connect the positive pole and immediately after the negative pole.

Position the clamp and tighten the nut using the 10mm wrench. Close the front hood and start the car to test the battery's operation.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
