How to Replace Your Battery in a 2015 Hyundai Elantra
Replacing the battery in your 2015 Hyundai Elantra is straightforward. Follow these steps carefully to ensure everything is done correctly.
1. Locate the Battery
Open the hood and locate the battery on the driver’s side of the engine bay.
2. Disconnect the Battery
Disconnect the negative cable: Use the 10mm socket to loosen the bolt on the negative (black) terminal. Remove the cable and set it aside.
Disconnect the positive cable: Repeat the process with the positive (red) terminal using the same 10mm socket.
3. Remove the Battery Hold-Down Clamp
Use a 12mm socket to remove the bolt securing the hold-down clamp at the base of the battery.
4. Remove the Old Battery
Carefully lift the old battery out of the compartment. Batteries can be heavy, so use both hands and take your time.
5. Install the New Battery
Place the new battery: Position the new battery in the compartment, ensuring the terminals are in the correct orientation.
Reinstall the hold-down clamp: Secure the battery with the clamp using the 12mm socket.
6. Reconnect the Battery
Reconnect the positive cable: Attach the positive (red) cable to the terminal and tighten it with the 10mm socket.
Reconnect the negative cable: Attach the negative (black) cable and tighten it securely.
7. Test the Alternator
Start your vehicle and test the alternator output using a multimeter. A healthy alternator should produce a voltage between 13.5 and 14.5 volts, although this can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.
