    Hello - I wanted to see if I could uninstall and reinstall a battery on my BMW 535i - by myself. I am a woman with no "car sense" whatsoever. But, I was able to do it with your very helpful video. After install, I had my fingers crossed that I did everything right, and that my car would start. It did and drove great! Thank you so much! Not only do I feel like I really accomplished something - with your help - but I saved myself a lot of money, too! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    • @tkc056
      @tkc056 Před 4 lety +2

      Yeah, you need to let the computer know when a new battery is installed regardless of what type of battery. The car will tell the alternator to charge the battery more over time as the battery gets older and retains less charge, so sticking in a brand new battery without registering it in the DME can cause overcharging of the new battery. I realize this comment is pretty late, but hope this helps someone in the future!

    • @chrisrautmann8936
      @chrisrautmann8936 Před 4 lety +5

      @@RANDOMFIX When you remove the energy from an electrical circuit (like removing a battery), you ALWAYS remove the power source before the ground. If you remove the ground first, the circuit is still energized, and you run the risk of arcing because of that stored energy. If you're lucky, you don't notice it. If you're not, you get to see the arc. If you're really unlucky, you get to fix a zorched piece of electrical equipment.
      By removing the energy source first, you allow the electrical charge to escape to ground before you start work. A negative ground system (like all cars today) the power is supplied to the positive, and the negative goes to ground.
      It's the same with any system. If you're working with a spring, you unload the spring. If you're working with pneumatics or hydraulics, you depressurize the system before you do anything. If you're dealing with electricity, you turn off the power.
      Be safe. And MARK that you did something, just in case someone else comes around and surprises you. Lock-out, tag-out around the house still works.

      Marinos, I would need to know a lot more to give better advice but to start.
      First make sure you a properly charged battery, make sure you have clean battery terminals and a good GROUND.
      2nd check to see if you are getting power in any of the other systems ( do the power windows/dome lights/ or headlights work?)
      3rd check all the fuses (check if the fusebox/distribution box is getting power)
      Tell a little more about your issue and I can give you better ideas on possible solutions. Best of lucks. _RandomFix

    wrong. when you fit a new battery always register it on the car because the alternator will charge a new battery at a lower rate than an old battery and over time the car will charge the battery more. by not registering the new battery it will try to over charge the new battery killing it in about 12 months.

      Okay, thank you for sharing! I didn't experience that, as long it's same ah and chemistry (identical battery replacement!)
      Please explain, thx
