- In this video, I'm demonstrating how to replace BOTH batteries in a Jeep JL 2018 & up! There are 2 ways of doing this, one is removing the fuse box to get to the auxiliary battery which carries risk of damaging connectors & pis. The second & easier way is to remove the fender flare which is much easier & the preferred method.

Going through the fuse box is so much easier and not fussing with clips. Also, if you have a 2.0T engine, you might NOT have an aux battery. I have a 2019 Rubicon Unlimited 2.0T...no Aux battery and thank goodness I went through the fuse box because it was quick and easy.
The auxiliary battery looks like an ATV battery and in a ridiculous place. Unless I'm missing something, If you put a battery tender/charger on the main battery, it should also charge the auxiliary battery.
Why does every video have to say "and then you have to do X and Y and then your'e done.." and then INSTEAD of showing it you just transition to it being done.. Hooking the negatives back up is what I WANT TO SEE and HEAR explained because when I touch the negatives together it sparks and it goes through the ratchet and I don't see how I can connect them and reconnect the nut without getting shocked!!!!!! OMG!!! Some people do NOT know how to do this.. when you make how to videos DO NOT SKIP ANYTHING!!!!!
I just went to swap out my auxiliary battery for a new one, and come to find out my jeep does not come with one. I was so upset after removing everything too it the space empty
I cna confirm that a 2019 2.0 Wrangler I worked on, does NOT have an auxiliary battery
You don't have to take off the fender! Just turn the tire all the way to the left, unclip the left side of the liner and you can access the battery.
So funny. Just passed 40k miles also and the exact same thing happened to me. Like it’s on a timer. Thanks for the vid!
Changed aux battery still not working says battery charging
you need to change the ground lead your using for your steps to the body. If it is on the battery ground it causes a feed back loop problem and drains the battery over time. Jeep recommends not attaching anything to the negative battery terminal as it is their self test feedback loop.
Thank you for the time spent doing this educational video. I have a 2020 with the 2.0 Turbo - awesome engine I will add. I reached now 41k. Aux battery died about 1 year ago. I press the button turning the stop/start off routinely. This is on my mine and will get the batteries and tackle this soon. One thing I'll say, I've heard the inner fender only has to come off, not the fender extension. Cheers, happy wheeling.
Thanks a ton!!! This method to change the AUX battery was a breeze. It took me 1hr30min to do it all. Thank a lot for putting in the efforts to create and share this video with everyone. Couldn't have done it without your video.
Great video! 2020 Rubicon 2.0T and same problem at 21k miles.
thanks for the video. it was very helpful to me. an Italian Jeepers 💪🏻
What a fantastic video, you explained very clearly all the procedures you showed us. Thanks for such a great video. How long would you say it took you from start to finish to replace both batteries? I have the painted fenders as well, so I really appreciated this video.
I’m going through this now, we replaced the aux and I’m going to get a new main battery this week and I really
Well done!
Literally what happened to me the other day. I replaced both batteries and its as good as new.
Nice video. Be sure to disconnect the negative terminals first when removing the battery and installing them last when reconnecting the new battery in. If you ground out your wrench on the positive terminal while the negative is still connected...it goes boom.
Cool
I would like to know if any risk if i replace the Aux battery (under fender) without shut down the engine . Which mean keep engine on running, the reason to keep memory of Radio / AC and all other system.
