      throtl I saw the original, what were the changes made ? Just adding the positive post rather than running straight into the breaker ?

      Always connect positive first.
      Examples:
      Negative first -> accidental wrench contact with chassis while connecting positive completes circuit, risks welding wrench and exploding battery.
      Positive first -> wrench contact during positive install does not complete circuit, no problems. wrench contact with chassis during negative install completes no circuit, again no problem.

      WhiteSpeed13 one of the biggest changes was moving the circuit breaker. The circuit breaker should be as close to the power source as possible so if there is an issue the breaker trips at the source you don’t have that live connection running any longer than needed. They also routed the power cable through the car this time like it should be instead of under the car.

    • @joelb2660
      @joelb2660 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Much better! Tiny point, if you shorted the battery posts, the circuit breaker wouldn’t trip. Which is why you correctly say you need the boots to cover the posts. Only shorting parts after the breaker will trip it. 👍🏻

    @FlesHBoX 4 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    Good on you for correcting the mistakes and reuploading, however I would suggest researching when commenters say something you aren't sure about. You don't want to connect negative first because it makes it easier to short the battery to the frame by accident. Until the negative is connected shorting the positive to the frame will do nothing because there is no path to the negative terminal for the power.
    This is less important with modern batteries that don't release hydrogen around itself that could potentially be ignited by a spark, but generally speaking, it's a good habit regardless.

    • @Streetracinginschoolzones
      @Streetracinginschoolzones 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, a tip I learned was that; it is still important today to connect positive first, because negative first could short or wipe the ECM by accident in cars

  • @xcandiottix
    @xcandiottix ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Question, if the battery is something like 600 cold cranking amps, and the starter presumably draws a few hundred amps, why doesn't the circuit breaker pop if its only a 150a breaker?

    • @mickeyandrade3435

      Not a big no-no. It really depends on how your car is being used. In this particular car the install was perfectly fine/safe but, for "How-to" purposes and us not knowing what car that eventual watchers will be modifying it was critical for us to make a more comprehensive video. Lesson learned. On to the next.

    There are OEM's that run power under the car... but it needs to be very well protected, and must be tinned copper wire (tinned OFC) - unless you have a very specifc reason to do it. just run it inside of the vehicle like a car stereo install... and yes fuse or breaker always as close to the battery as possible.

    • @jorgeandmaryvaldes9217
      @jorgeandmaryvaldes9217 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Grounding to the chasis in the back will work but will cause a higher current draw during starting becasue of the increased resistance seen across the whole chasis. Ground for the starter is returned through the engine block, hence the factory ground on the right side of the block close to the starter. Best installation it to provide a return path as close to the starter as possible i.e. the factory location. The higher draw could cause the battery to struggle as it weakens. Sounds like the increased draw isn't a real issue with others.

    Relying on a plastic tray to hold a battery in the event of a collision could result in the heavy battery tearing the J-hooks out of the soft plastic and send the battery flying forward.
    Inside a trunk, maybe that won't end up in personal injury, but in an SUV or station wagon, it's a projectile inside the passenger compartment that nobody wants to stop!
    The breaker next to the battery needs to be sized to allow the starter to draw more than the usual so the breaker doesn't pop and strand you. 140A or 150A might work for a small engine, but with bigger engines, the starter draws more amperage and the breaker needs to be suitably sized.

    Hello I need alittle help. I'm relocating the battery in my lacrosse super to the trunk due to space issues. I need to know if I'm doing this rt. I routed the gauge 2 power cable to the engine by going under the back seat into the carpet and zip tied to the original wiring harness then back up to the bottom of the dash through the original harness grommet and zip tied all the way up to the engine. The original power cable disappears as it wraps around my v8 engine so was going to connected the new cable to the original using a jump post and ground the engine to the location I removed the battery tray from. Then connect a 100amp circuit breaker in the trunk going from the cable to the breaker then to the battery. Please tell me if theres something I'm missing coz it feels like theres something else I need to install. Thanks

    Why is it good practice to put the ground on first before the live?

    All the previous cables that went to the battery are not mounted to chassis right? Doesn’t show in video

      They go to a distro block you mount in the bay

    Help! where can I get 25ft of strong good quality 0 AWG wire to relocate my battery?

    Why are circuit breakers becoming a thing? The whole point of the main fuse is to protect the main circuit, adding the circuit breaker is one more point of failure and is only protecting the main fuse 🤷 . Also even though you can ground to chassis and it'll more than likely be OK, it's ideal and good practice to ground the battery to the engine block as close to the starter as possible to ensure the correct ground path to the starter whilst cranking.

    Wouldn't the carpet burn if the positive is hot?

    don't touch the negative or the positive and you wont have to worry about turning on the spark machine.

      Just run a wire from the positive terminal on the first battery to the positive terminal of the second terminal. Use a fuse for each battery, as close to the positive wire as possible. Find a new grounding point for the second terminal. Consider using a circuit breaker between the two batteries.

    I’m trying to buy a “kit” that includes all your parts to relocate my Audi battery. I emailed the guy you mentioned but have yet to receive a list from him.
