How do you disconnect the car battery? I understand that the negative side has to be disconnected first but I am not sure on HOW to do any of this. Do you use a wrench to loosen the bolt?

 

yes, just take a wrench to the clamp bolt, losen it and slide it off. Just make sure the wrench doesn't touch both terminals...

 

Are the clamp bolts on the top part of the battery or on the um...bottom part? like the thing that is attatched to the bolt

 

I'm just gonna say this now.... Plz don't touch your battery. take it to a tech and have them do it for you. i don't want your mother comign on here tellin us you killed yourself tryin to swap out your battery. :P

 

that and the dealerships don't like that if you use it to CLEAR CODES

 

Hey now! I just installed the intake (after I got the reflash), I was just wondering if I still had to reset the ECU because I installed the intake AFTER the reflash?

 

Beep

 

unless i code came up after reflash you shouldn't have to

 

I thought you were supposed to disconnect the battery after installing a cone air filter to re-gain the torque down low...? People have been saying DC the battery after getting the cone to feel the diff

 

Its doesnt hurt to disconnect the battery..I installed my CAI last night after my reflash and weither it made a difference or not I feel it did..Its always a good habit to disconnect before working on your car..Especially when it comes to electronics..

 

come on now, everyone knows it's Bump

but to get to the point at hand, i've never disconnected the battery after installing my cone filter... but yea always be careful around the battery.

 

disconnect the battery..gives the ECU a clean slate

 

lol

 

Well in case you still havnt figured it out there is a nut of the neg. connector of the battery. Just losen that nut and pull the connector off the battery. Leave it off for like a min. then put it back and you should be good to go.

I have had to do it a few time becaus I keeped on getting SES light for having my boost controller installed on my car. I had to unplug the boost controller and now no light. Just waiting on a tune now.

 

you unplug your battery your warranty is void
