Quartely or half yearly check the entire length of each battery cable for any sign of abrasion, cracked or burnt insulation, any sign of corrosion can lead to the prevention of the necessary starting current to start the engine and poor engine performance. Inspect the cable to terminal connection area also if one sees heavy white fluffy material underneath that has formed at the insulation it is a sign of corrosion and it will require replacement of cable. It is always recommended to unplug the negative terminal first and to plug it in the last in order to avoid shorting the battery. Remove wires from the battery, follow them to their remote terminals and take them off, remember the cable path for reconnection. Check the wires clip of the starter solenoid and ground terminals and if replacing them remember to mark the position of the cables. When buying a new cable, take the old one with you to guarantee that you get an exact match as they come in positive and ground cables with positive cables commonly in red and larger size while the ground cables are in black and smaller size. Scrub all the contacts with a wire brush to eliminate rust or other forms of corrosion, and subsequently apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly or any other form of grease on the threads of the fasteners with a view of averting further formation of rust or corrosion. Connect the cable on its correct terminal, and fasten the mounting screw firmly; thereafter, use petroleum jelly or grease coat the point where the connection was made. Make sure that the new cable does not get elongated and connect the positive cable followed by the negative one.
