Seriously this video gave me the confidence to do this myself I was so confused the first time I popped the hood and saw a fuse thing on top of my battery
I have a 2017 GMC sierra 1500 SLT. I had original equipment battery that went ba. The battery was replaced in 2023. I have never had a battery removal that was this extensive. What I don’t understand et is a blank battery plate to mount a battery that much easier to access on the drivers side.
You demystified this for me, and saved me a couple of hundred dollars from having the dealership do it. Thank you for an excellent video, sir.
Outstanding video.
First time I’ve had to change my battery in this truck. Bought it brand new 9 years ago.
Couldn’t t have done it without you.
Very much appreciated!!!
Good job on this, no way i could have done it without watching this!!
Bravo! That battery setup scared the hell out of me. This video told me everything I needed to know, down to what sockets I needed. I called my father-in-law for moral support and had the battery in the driveway when he arrived to take me to the shop. I saved money and earned some father-in-law street credit. Thanks again.
Thank you for not dragging how to do this By far the best video and explanation Thank you sir for a direct way to do this It was a success
You are very welcome
Nailed it! Thanks to this video, swapped my battery with zero issues…
Thank you for the very helpful tutorial. When I first brought the battery home I thought it was the wrong one until watching your video. I'm a 57 year old widow and have never done anything like this before. Your instructional video made replacing the battery so easy. Thanks again.
You're welcome!
Thanks Bryan. My battery died today on our 2016 GMC Sierra. This video was the best how to video I have watched on You Tube to date. Thanks for saving me so much time and money.
First impression when I lifted the hood, said no way I can do this. Watched this video, grabbed the tools mentioned and got it done. Great walk through video, thanks for mentioning the tools needed.
I miss the days of vehicles without obnoxiously cramped engine bays. Still not as bad as my old dodge intrepid that I had to remove a wheel to get to the battery which was sunk in the passenger wheel well.
Thank you Bryan, great video. I changed this battery 3 years age and I took way more off to access the battery than I needed to. Your instructions were spot on.
“Gotta play Tetris!” Is an understatement at times. Great helpful video.
This may be my new favorite quote when fixing cars.
I just changed the battery in a 2017 three days ago. What's the most frustrating thing to me is all the space on the driver side, where the battery could have gone and been easier to change.
Yeah getting a negative jumper cable to clamp in that back pole is impossible if you have big clamps
Thank you for this comment. Iam currently losing my fucking mind getting this thing out.
Thank you for the video! The cross eyed guy at the auto part store tried to tell me it was a hour job to replace the battery. I couldn't believe a battery swap would take that long and had to search it. I've been playing battery cranking power roulette for about a month now. I can take care of this during my lunch break.
I love the “snug ‘em up”! Great job explaining this installation.
I’ve seen a few videos about replacing the battery and this is the best video by far. You make it look easy. I’ve seen the coolant reservoir being moved to the side to pull the battery out to keep it from turning it.
This was an excellent well planned video! Saved me so much time and money. Thanks my man!
excellent job explaining the details of installing a battery on my truck. Thanks!
Followed this exactly how you did it, especially how you removed the battery. Phenomenal video, thank you sooo much!!
Glad it helped
Great video! I recommend checking the terminal bolt and having a spare handy. Mine was a T-bolt and it snapped, even though just snugging. Took me longer to find that bolt then to do the whole job.
I'm replacing mine this weekend, not truck just battery (ha ha)so glad I found this video. To the point and very helpful, that's.
This was great! Ours died in our 2018 and we were able to change it in a snap. Thanks for the video!
This is how You do video and properly explain the whole process.!!! Great 👍 👌 SIR!
Well done, it helped me a lot on my '18 Sierra today! Kinda crazy that we need videos to change out batteries, but that is how it is these days!
Thanks for the video. You explained everything very methodically. I had to change my battery in my 2018 Gmc Denali. It was very helpful!😎
And here I thought I was going to remove two terminals and a battery clamp... Not too bad of a job tho... Thanks for the vid 🍻
Appreciate the video. Just changed battery out today. What a booger lol but the video definitely helped. 👊
Nice job installing this battery. The only things I would have done differently would be to clean under and around the battery tray location while the battery is out of the truck. Poor grounding has also been an issue with these trucks, so I would have taken care of any grounding connections in this general location while the battery was out as well. I'm a bit OCD to some degree when doing maintenance on my truck.
Dude what a great demonstration performance! Thank you thank you!!!!
Thanks for the video...I was confused af..ive never had to remove a car battery this complicated before..
This video is great! Only want to add that my replacement battery from Costco did not have the slots on the long side opposite the terminals, so the top fuse plate would not snap in place. However, securing the positive terminal kept it snugly in place.
Great info! Beautiful video! Thank you so much for taking the time!
❤😊
I would have royally "f"ed things up without this video cause the manual the truck came with makes it clear as mud how to replace the battery. Thanks for your time and effort putting this together. You're a lifesaver.
You're welcome!
Thank you. Your video was awesome. It helped me replace my 2014 gmc Sierra 1500 sle truck battery.
Thank you for the instructions! I was a bit intimidated by removing and reinstalling the passenger side battery, but your in-depth step by step instructions made the battery replacement easy!
Thanks for getting right to the point man… Great instructions
Thank you! Step by step and was able to do this myself.
Thank you buddy. You really helped me out of a early morning jam.
I like your instructions. Straight, short, and to the point. There is another vid on this battery change but it is 7 minutes longer and I ain't got time for that.
Thank you! Easy to follow instructions.
Yes Sir!
Thank you for the video. Great explanation and tips for an easy replacement. Definitely need to play some Tetris now!
SUPERB video. Very helpful. Thank you
FYI you need a 13mm deep socket for the posts under the box. I used a 1/2" open end to tighten, works but not the best.
This was very helpful today …thanks brother
Thank you so much for this video! Incredibly helpful!
Thanks for sharing! Excellent presentation and very clear! Great Job!
Thank you so much! A great step by step tutorial👍
Well done video. Very informative and helpful, thank you very much. Well organized also, even the music matched up well.
Thank you.
Perfect instructions and excellent video.
Great video. Removing the large plastic connector is key to getting enough space to wiggle this out. There is absolutely no excuse for GM to have made this battery so hard to get to/out. Ridiculous.
So we have to go to the dealership
Thank you, great help saved me money
THANK YOU FOR THIS. It only took me 30 min with this video thanks
You're very welcome!
Awesome, precise video, thank you!
This helped me out so so much awesome instructions !!!
Thank you very much.
Was very helpful. 😊
Thanks for sharing this
Awesome instruction .
Awesome video and straight to the point. Where do you buy your battery?
Great video, thank you
Good video just did mine only thing is I didn't take off the vertical bracket I had plenty of room but I did snap the bolt on the positive terminal lol so back to parts store!
Really appreciate this video. Thanks.
My pleasure!
Awesome work thank you sir!
Thanks, Bryan - very helpful video. Might want to re-install the center bracket post at the bottom before re-attaching the distribution block - especially if you don’t have a ratchet extension. Also, they sell rubber gaskets and terminal grease kits for $4 that are supposed to avoid corrosion on the terminals.
Needed this today. I knew exactly what to look for prior to hitting the garage. Thanks! Was able to swap the battery quickly before dark since I had this 'heads up' on what to do.
Great video Bryan! 👍👍👍
Super Thanks my Brother very well n professional explained n save me some money. 🍻🙏🏼🇺🇸
Thank you for this video. A huge help!
You're welcome!
Thanks , very helpful !
great video presentation
Thank you for this!
Glad it was helpful!
Life saver, Dude! Swapping a battery at -26F is no fun.
Best video I’ve watched!!!
Had to do this yesterday
You the man
I have heard that if you take out the two bolts of coolant tank that it can be moved and battery is real easy to slide in to place without having to fight it and turning battery on its side and end
Appreciate the video
Hey Bryan. Great video. My new battery came with a vent plug and a 90 degree elbow for venting outside the vehicle. The battery isn't vented, so I don't need the elbow. I was wondering about the plug. There's nothing in the manual about it.
Great point about not tightening with the impact.
Thank, I did it with you elp 👍
Damn it GM! That's a pain in the ass just to swap a battery.
Wondering what the two cables with the blue clips that you are attaching back to the distribution block that sits on top of the battery? I notice that there are two of them and my truck only has the larger of the two!!! Referring to the video at exactly 7 mins. into the video.
Man! Improper orientation of the wires is what I think is giving me all kinds of electrical problems!
Thank you!!!!
You're welcome!
Wonderful! You have a calming voice! But I have 4 cables and 3 screws?! What do I do? Add a screw where it’s an empty slot?
Snug en up lol 😆 great video 👍👍
Thanks!
Thank you!
Nice. Ty
what are those wires for on the fuse block buss
You can tell the engineer that designed that battery compartment never had to install one. The batteries are heavy and they don't go in easy in that cramped space.
I did one today and could not pivot it to come out. I wound up having to remove the air box in order to get to the coolant reservoir and unbolt that too.
Next time Ill try the pivot shown. Still only took me about 30 minutes but it was absurd. I was like 'theres no way they designed this for any other reason than to discourage the average joe from doing it himself'.
Good video but I have a question in this truck you don’t have to do a battery relearn so the truck computer know they have a new battery or like most cars now have?
No relearn necessary
Perfect! 👍 👍 👍
How do you test it?
Has anyone else had issues with heat and vents not working like they should after installing a new battery or jumping the old battery? Some funky stuff going on with my 2014 GMC Sierra SLT.
That’s what am going thru right now, my a/c, radio and some buttons from my steering wheel aren’t working…
Problema con luz de techo , radio y ac . El radio fue fácil cambiar el fusible . Viene uno de repuesto en la camioneta .
You can tell the person that designed this, does not work on it themselves 😂😂
DID YOU INSTALL MEMORY SAVER BEFORE REMOVING POSITIVE CABLE ?
No
I just put a new battery in my 2014 Silverado, 4.3 liter. And this morning, I started it up. And the charging gage says 14. Then after it sets there and runs for a while it goes a hair below 14 while running. is that normal? A couple days ago Is when I changed it. And at first it was over 14 1/2 on the gage. Thanks.
It's probably normal I have some tech info on the GM smart charging system that could help you. Watch the video link below and skip toward the end. (33;09)

what a pain in the ass GM trucks
I just pop that thing on the top of the battery and layed it to the side never disconnected it took me less then 5 minutes
Not like my 2014 GMC Sierra ? but good job on video !
