ive googled all over the place. i need to change my battery terminal cables. they connect to the side of the battery and i would rather have the cables connect to the top of the battery rather than the side. its an 02 chevy avalanche 1500. know anything please hit me up. volcrany@yahoo.comHow do i change my side terminals to top terminals(battery) for an %26039;02 chevy avalanche?
There's probably a reason it's got side terminals, no one prefers them.
Manufacturers use side terminal batteries because traditional top terminals won't fit under the hood. Changing it will require modification in the engine bay, possibly a lot.
Take your truck somewhere that stocks a lot of batteries and then ask what will work in your truck. Prepare for disappointment though.
Sorry for the bad news.How do i change my side terminals to top terminals(battery) for an %26039;02 chevy avalanche?
make sure when you close the hood the top terminals wont hit the hood anyway if you go to auto parts store they sell terminal ends you cut the ends off the ones you have now strip the ends about a half inch then simply tighten the new ends on i would also check BEFORE you start i would be surprised if the cables are long enough to do what you want to do then you have to buy longer cables iHow do i change my side terminals to top terminals(battery) for an %26039;02 chevy avalanche?
Just about any parts store can sell you a battery cable conversion kit.... It's not that hard it you have cable cutters... You just simply cut the old side terminal connections off Strip the outer skin of the wire... And then clamp the new ends on it.. They screw down... Just make sure before you do all the cutting and stripping that the cables are long enough to reach the top posts of the new battery... You don't want to find out after you cut them that they wont reach.How do i change my side terminals to top terminals(battery) for an %26039;02 chevy avalanche?
yep, it know what your saying! i changed mine on my oldsmobile. my battery has side and top post so what i did was cut the cables, got a couple of replacement ends for top post and hooked them on the top post. auto zone sells the top post ends.How do i change my side terminals to top terminals(battery) for an %26039;02 chevy avalanche?

How much does it Cost to change a battery and a the belt in the engine of a car?
Labor and PartsHow much does it Cost to change a battery and a the belt in the engine of a car?
It depends on the car of course but belts will cost about $10 for a %26quot;V%26quot; - belt and around $25 for a serpentine belt.
Batteries cost about $30-$80 depending on the brand and %26quot;CCA%26quot;
Labor also depends on the car and how accessible everything is, but labor at most auto shops is $60/hour and should take between 1/2 hour and 1 hour.How much does it Cost to change a battery and a the belt in the engine of a car?
batteries can be anywhere from 30-80 bucks and a belt is usually liek 20-30 bucks. labor shouldnt be more that 50 or 60 bucks.How much does it Cost to change a battery and a the belt in the engine of a car?
Depends on the battery.
Maybe...$100-$150? Cheaper or more expensive.
If you have ANY mechanical ability, it's almost dummy proof on many newer cars to do it yourself. The Serpentine Belt on many cars is about a 1 minute job.
There is a tensioner that you move with whatever tool it takes.
You slide the old belt off and let the tensioner back to its normal spot (it's spring loaded)
You put the new belt on in the same routing that the old one was in, minus one pulley.
You pull/push (whichever way it goes) on the tensioner to let the belt go back over that pulley.
You're done.
The battery MAY require you to hook up some other power source if you have a special radio or some alarm systems. That's not true with most vehicles. You can usually unbolt the battery cables and take off whatever is holding the battery down and reverse the procedure for putting a new one in.
This is true with most cars. But if you want to pay someone else to do it, they may charge up to a half hour labor for both jobs depending on what the book calls for. Including time to look up the right belt and battery, it may take the technician a whopping 10 minutes to change both. Then you're looking at markup prices on the battery and belt.
Worth seeing whether or not you can do it yourself on the car.How much does it Cost to change a battery and a the belt in the engine of a car?
well, I dont agree 100% with the others. Serpenteen belts can go $40-50, and batteries...$40-$100 Labor may vary depending on the layout of the car. some belts take 10 min and others up to an hour....Batteries usually dont take long but you never know what you run into. I say my range for a mechanic anywhere from $80-$170 for parts(remember they mark them up from what YOU can buy them for) and $100-$170 for labor.medical doctor at home database

How do you change the battery for a laser in a glock 17?
wait a second your talking about an actual Glock 17, that is a Laser Max laser, as far as i know it takes actual batteries and it replaces the recoil guide in your glock, so if it needs a battery change, i assume you have to take out the guide and replace the batteries and then put it back in.

How to change key battery in a 2001 9-5 Saab.?
I know you need to poke a hole on the key but Ive been doing this with no results. I would take it to the dealer but they're a total rip-off.
Any simple explanation for this problem?How to change key battery in a 2001 9-5 Saab.?
I had the same problem ....I ended up getting a fine screw driver that you would use on eye glasses and that seemed to do the trick I pulled the fob apart while turning the screw and it came a part.I just replaced the battery and was able to put it back together again using the same screwdriver.
Hope this helps.

I had to remove the air cleaner assembly, the windshield fluid reservoir and then there was a support bracket that ran from the radiator to the wheel well I had to remove. There were two bolts in the front and two that you had to access from the wheel well, once removed you could get to the battery.How do you change the Battery in a 1997 Oldsmobile silhouette?
hold the rod and turn the nut or use a grind or saw and cut it off im sure its just rusted and slipping and not much more you can do but try and hold side of it other than just cutting it off and buying anew boltsgray hair band myspace
