Video tutorial

In this video, you will learn how to replace a car battery; the method is generally the same for all internal combustion engine vehicles. You will need a T-bar socket with an extension and a hex key. First, unscrew the negative terminal (the black one) of the battery and move the cable away from the battery to prevent a short circuit.

Next, unscrew the positive terminal (the red one). Now, you need to unfasten the battery from the vehicle, which is usually held in place by a bolt or bracket, depending on the model. Here, there is a bolt that you will unscrew, allowing you to lift the battery out. Replace the battery (the old one must be disposed of at an authorised centre), secure it in place, and reconnect the terminals, starting with the positive and then the negative.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

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.
