2005 Buick Park Avenue Battery Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the battery cable (TOP POST) on 2005 Buick Park Avenue?

  A: You should begin the battery positive cable (TOP POST) replacement process by disconnecting the negative battery terminal cable and then lifting the positive terminal cover. The battery positive cable requires removal from its connection to the positive battery terminal followed by removal of the battery positive cable protector cover installed on the underhood fuse block. Start by removing the positive battery terminal cable from the underhood fuse block and then lift the vehicle and detach the cable from the Starter before disconnecting the battery positive cable from the positive terminal. First remove the electrical harness conduit wire ties from the engine frame while also removing the battery positive cable out of both the electrical harness conduit and the vehicle. Follow this installation order when placing the battery positive cable inside the electrical harness conduit before securing the electrical harness conduit wire ties to the engine frame. Secure the Starter-mounted battery positive cable with a nut which should be tightened to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Afterwards, return the vehicle to the ground. To install the battery positive cable the first step involves securing the nut at the fuse block terminal while tightening it to 15 n.m (11 lb ft) and placing the protective cover on the fuse block. Complete the first process by tightening the Battery Cable nut to 6 n.m (53 lb in) while connecting the positive Battery Cable to its post. Next, place the post protector cover and proceed with reconnecting the negative cable to its proper post.
