It is advisable to check regularly all the length of every battery cable for damage, and crack or burn in the insulation and corrosion as this may cause starting failure and low engine performance. One should also check on cable to terminal connections, to check whether they have cracks, if the wire strands are loose, and inspect for corrosion, white fluffy deposits under the insulation mean that the cable has had its life expectancy and should be replaced. Make sure that the positive cable is disconnected prior to the exchange. Take out your damaged cables from vehicular systems, be certain that the replacement cables' sizes are the same as those of the removed cables. Remove all rust and corrosion on the threads of the starter or ground connection by using wire brush then apply petroleum jelly to the thread in order to ease in the installation and also to prevent future corrosion, check connections often for cleanliness and tightness. Screw the cables to the starter or ground connection point making sure that the nuts are well tightened. New cables should be placed in such a manner that they do not stretch when connected to the terminal of the battery. Screw the positive cable then the negative cable, then tight the nuts and cover the terminal and the cable with little amount of petroleum jelly. You will have to take off the positive cable; then, there are the battery frame hold-downs, and you will need to remove the screws to pull the frame up. To replace the battery, one should be very cautious so that he or she does not spill electrolyte on the paint used; this is done in the same manner as in the above mentioned procedure.
