good job for making this as least complicated as possible i completed the guide
Great guide..... If you don't have the plastic tool, my thumb nail worked just fine
Thanks for this great guide.
When attaching the new battery it helped me to actually attach the wiring connector before final placement of the battery. Also, I found it easier to put the single screw in first before pushing the battery all the way down and starting the three on the other side. The cscrew holes in the replacement battery have to be PERFECT and if they’re just slightly off you can’t get the one lonely screw started if you put the other three in first.
I enjoied the guide it was realy easy the video was varry helpfull. I do have a question is there any way to test the batery to make sure that is realy the problem, before i go replaycing it?
