How to Replace the Battery in a Dodge Durango
- 1). Find the battery on the driver's side behind the headlight. The hybrid electrical batteries are located behind the driver's seat.
- 2). Remove the cable ends from the battery terminals with a battery terminal puller. Then take out the screws that hold the battery in place.
- 3). Lift the battery out of the compartment. Use the wire brush to clean the surface that holds the battery. Clean the insides of the connector cables with a pointed wire brush. Keep your gloves on at all times to avoid getting acid on your hands.
- 4). Rinse off the cables and battery tray or wipe with a damp cloth, and let them dry out.
- 5). Place the new battery on the shelf. Place the correct cable on each terminal and tighten securely with pliers or a socket wrench. Replace the battery holder and cover.
