- Do you need to Replace the battery on your Ford Escape (2001 - 2017) but don't know where to start? This video tutorial shows you step-by-step how to do it!
Our Ford Escape (2001 - 2017) manual covers petrol and diesel engines, and includes videos for some of the most common jobs, which you can see here in this playlist. Get the full manual haynes.com/en-...
What's covered:
Good vid, looks like Ford engineers made this more complicated than it should be.
Like usual 🙄
They did! It is a bit of a hassle, but it's still possible to do! With a few choice words and a couple scraped knuckles...it can be done! Lol
Wow, thanks for this video! It's absurd that a battery replacement is so involved. What's next, Ford, making customers remove the back bumper, left tire, and the exhaust system to put gas in the car?
Way to complicated. And battery maintenance is something that need to be done. Thank you for video.
thanks for this. those grommets on the air box were not easy to deal with. not really sure i got the big one back in all the way. hopefully it’s good enough.
I had to put the selector switch to Auto to reset as shown on a 2017 Ford Escape Trend.
What did you use to tighten the cable nuts
Stupid place to put a battery
Yuup we have a 2017 Ford escape getting it done now .why ford why did you do something stupid like this. Cmon man..
Yes it sure is. I used to have a PT Cruiser and to get to the battery you had to jack the car up...and then pull the front drivers side wheel off and then pull like a dozen screws out of the wheel well cover...and then---VOILA! Battery just sitting there looking stupid as hell up in the BUMPER!
Getting ready to change battery 2017 escape and what I think of the Ford design I'll keep to myself but I ain't happy. Nieces 2005 Pontiac Bonneville battery under the back seat not as difficult to get to still poor design.
What about resetting the Battery Monitoring System?
When driven casually after a battery replacement, the computer should perform an automatic “relearn” procedure, including recalibrating the battery monitoring system. This should happen within a few drive cycles. If you’d like to reset the BMS manually, this link may be helpful: www.automasterx.com/how-to-reset-ford-battery-management-system/
.... once the battery is finally replaced, fire 7 12 gauge buckshot, into engine block, and never buy a Ford product again!!
This should have read 2011 and later battery replace. The 2001 through 2010 are 2 nuts 2 cables and it's out of there. I guess that's progress ????????
Thank god the ford engineers made this as annoying as possible. Blue oval all the way
Pretty easy,I had it done in a half hour,I'ts a bit of a pain but Ive dealt with A lot worse than this.
Just did this and one thing to say @&$& ford !!
You go way too fast it’s hard to see which bolts your talking about
You will see them. Maybe you already found them as it’s been 2 weeks since your post 😆
This is not remotely correct for a 2008 Escape.
