- My Toyota Corolla Hatchback was beginning to exhibit a slow engine crank... The battery was over 4 years old, so it was time to replace. Here's the step-by-step process on how to replace your battery.

Just changed my battery 2 hours ago while watching your video. Thank you for helping this woman change her first battery.
That's fantastic, great job. I'm glad the video helped!
I wanted to thank you for the tutorial, I just replaced the battery on my Corolla. But I wanted to mention, for the model year 2020, the H5 grouping is too big. A 2020 takes an H4. I measured the H5 and all the dimensions are the same, expect it’s an inch longer. Just thought I would add my 2 cents in case anyone else with a 2020 Corolla needs to change their battery. Thanks again 👍
Interesting, thanks for sharing!
It may depend on the exact make.
My 2020 LE took an H4, but higher specs may use the larger batteries.
I don't have much experience, and have been trying to get more self-sufficient with car maintenance. This video was super straight-forward and easy to follow! Thank you so much!!
Awesome job! I'm glad I was able to do my small part. 👍
I verify this video best way to do it. Some other videos do not release the lever and force it open which could damage your car.
Thanks for your comment!
My 2020 SE is having the same issues. I bought a battery Charger because I didn't know how to change the Battery, but this is the best Step by step DIY video. Gonna go get it done ‼️ Earned a Subscriber, probably doesn't mean much but hey .
You're very welcome. On the contrary, thanks for subscribing!
Thank you for the lesson. Will do it tomorrow
You're welcome!
Thanks for the tutorial!
You're very welcome.
Very good video!!!
Thanks for the feedback.
Good video thanks
You're welcome!
I changed my battery on the 2022 corolla nightshade edition and now my windows will not roll down.
Is there like some Data reset we are supposed to do?
The H5 battery is over an inch and 1/4 wider in the front than the H4 which is closer in size to the OEM battery but it looks like it fit ok into the battery tray. 🤷🏼♂️ Am I correct?
Hi Nickmashek6869. It appears that different regions and Corolla trim levels have different battery sizes. Please get the appropriate battery size for your configuration. Thanks!
I have a 2020 Corolla LE with the 1.8L engine. I’d like to install the H5 battery with its higher CCA than the H4 but it’s a bit wider. The H5 you installed seemed to fit perfectly in the tray. What trim level was the Corolla in the video?
Does your lane trace assist still work after changing battery? Do you have to calibrate it again?
Hi huds04, that feature worked as expected after the battery change. No configuration was needed. Hope this helps. Thanks.
I can remove the battery of my Corolla SE sedan 2022 for 3 or 4 days? Or I need to connect a memory saver device or jumper while I put a new battery?
Hi Carlos. I'm not sure, I just had it disconnected for a few minutes.
What if you have factory remote start on car? Do you have to reset anything on car?
Hi Gearup. I'm not sure, I don't have that feature on my car. That said, just a few weeks ago, I did just make a video on a car memory saver to which keeps all your settings while you're replacing your battery. I used it for my Honda Pilot and I didn't need to enter the radios security code after replacing the battery. It was < $20 shipped. I hope this a little helpful.
Watch the metal clip mine is somewhere on the skid plate under the motor. After it went flying.
I just changed the battery on my 2021 Corolla and it’s throwing all sorts of codes and idling strangely. I tried to take it around the block and it wouldn’t even go above 20mph.
Hi thedoyleharcavy. A friend of my had a similar condition. We thoroughly cleaned the +/- battery terminals, let it sit unplugged for an hour, then reconnected both terminals confirming they were on tight. The car started without issue after that.
I'm having the same issue , battery went to shit , all the same problems your having , Toyota replaced battery today and cleared codes , still having weird problems , did you get yours figured out ?
I replaced mine tonight and the check engine light came on, the car was kind of hesitating, and then once I started driving it all these lights came on my dashboard. We did the negative terminal first so I’m not sure if that made a difference
You're probably ok now but the factory manual states that the Steering Sensor Zero Point Calibration needs to be performed after a battery disconnect. Not doing so affects the Lane Control, Pre-Collision in gas models and the Lighting System in those equipped with AFS and EXT.
I followed all off the previous steps, then after I loosened my positive terminal nut, my terminal still wouldn’t budge? It feels like it’s bolted on where that screw is. Am I doing something wrong?
Hmm.. Not sure, All I had to do was release the lever on the back and back off the Positive terminal nut. The assembly then just lifted up and off. The terminal possibly sticking to the post? twist a few times to release?
pry it upwards with a flathead screw driver while wiggling it up with the other hand
Have a slow crank on my 21 corolla just started happening, it’s the battery finally going out? Haven’t changed it since got the car
That was exactly my initial symptom. After replacing the battery, it started right up.
@@BIsForBudget ok I need to get one as soon as I can, it still starts but I do notice how it starts up now, it has to be the battery
@@gilbertperez118 That was my thoughts too. I'd rather swap it out proactively, than to be stuck somewhere unexpectedly.
Do you know if the 2020 Corolla XSE requires a different battery type? I went to 4 different Sam's Clubs and one Auto Zone and they would say they had the battery in stock, but once they opened the hood and saw the OEM battery they would quickly say they don't have the battery and would refuse to touch it. I ended up at Walmart of all places today and they used this same battery used in the video, installed it and it started/worked fine and I didn't notice any updates needed to the computer to my car? Does it matter if it's an AGM battery for an XSE? Has anyone else had this reaction when they would take their car for a battery replacement?
Hi surfsexsea! That's interesting. I knew which group size/specs I needed, so I just pulled the correct battery out of the rack at Walmart. The batteries are manufactured by Johnson Controls, which I've had good experience with in the past. My Corolla is an SE, but I didn't find anything out of the ordinary with the battery. The factory battery wasn't AGM, so I opted for a standard battery. Maybe the module above the Positive Terminal threw them off? (shrugging shoulders).
YES! I was thinking the same thing! Either that or the white color of the original battery that came with the car.
I’m guessing you have an H4 battery? I have an XLE with also that size. Most places were completely out/back ordered.
Base model hatch has different battery too, get either h4 or 121R, 121R you might have to adjust or cut out your battery hold down a bit to fit perfect.
H4 only available at the dealership in my area
Wow, I have the same car in Europe and the battery capacity is 45Ah not 60Ah.
That's interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Hey Sir! We sincerely look for a collaboration with you! Are you interested in trying our seat covers and help us make a video?
Hi Coverado. I'm interested. May I have the details? Thanks!
@@BIsForBudget Hi! What's your IG or email address?
@@BIsForBudget Hi~Where can I contact you to send you more details?
@@coverado Please message me through my Instagram page instagram.com/bisforbudgetyt/. Thanks!
2022 Corolla takes H4/140R. H5 is too big and won't fit in tray
That's interesting. May I have the following information? Hatchback or sedan,Trim level,engine size and Country. Thanks!

What if the positive terminal nut is screwed from the inside?
I'm not sure what you mean by "screwed from the inside". I've looked up pics of other Corolla batteries and they appear to be setup similar to mine. Sorry.
I’m wondering if you’re having the same problem I am having. After loosening the nut- I couldn’t get the terminal to budge. Still felt bolted down by that screw?
I believe the spray is supposed to go on after everything is tightened, NOT directly on terminal! If it is dielectric, remove it!
