Mopar 4868999AB Storage Battery

First of all, battery maintenance is important. Also, you need to wear eye protection and gloves. If there is corrosion, remove the battery, clean it with baking soda, and make sure the battery tray and clamps are secure. Use a slow-rate charger for discharged batteries.

Multiple car functions need ongoing battery power to stay active and keep information stored in control units. When the battery is removed, electricity that powers essential systems on the vehicle is turned off. Before taking off the battery, get the key out of the ignition and hold on to it. This way, you'll be prepared if the power door locks lock you out when you reconnect the battery by mistake. "Memory-saving" devices designed like car chargers plugged into the lighter socket alleviate these storage issues, powering security codes and always-on circuits. The battery goes behind the lower left fender's front portion and connects through two wires placed in the engine compartment near the left strut tower. Remove power for service by removing the negative cable end nut, disconnecting the cable, and mounting plastic insulation on the cable end to the stud, then putting the nut back. On 2015 and newer models, before disconnecting the car's battery, you must first take off the Intelligent Battery Sensor cable from its electrical plug.
