Nice and informative video. Stepped me through changing the battery on my 2016 Fusion Energi perfectly.
On mine, I need a 10mm socket for all of the fasteners. Additionally, I didn't have the tool for the plastic fasteners. I just reached my fingers under the plastic and gently pulled it out without issue.

Hi - You're welcome and thanks for watching!
Thanks for this wonderful detailed video! I've replaced batteries before, but this was a whole new ballgame. What was FORD thinking!
Hi - You're welcome and thanks for watching!
Haha same here. I've replaced batteries before with no instructions, but like you said, this was a whole new ballgame! Luckily this video made it easy.
The people at Ford who engineered the battery compartment also did the headlight area. I think they hated people.
Great video, very informative, and I love the background music. Made me feel festive :)
Thank you!
Hi - You're welcome and thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. Walked me right through swapping batteries on our 2016 Fusion Energi.

Hi - You’re welcome and thanks for watching and sharing your experience!
These were perfect instructions, thank you! Reminder that you might need to clean off any corrosion before taking off the cables. Much easier to remove.

Great video!

Great video
Hi - Thanks and thanks for watching!
Good video but I would add these items:
1. If using a jump pack to keep the computer memory intact, be very careful about the loose positive terminal. If it falls against grounded metal you'll have a big arc and that can cause lots of damage to you or the car. I would wrap the positive terminal in duct tape or a plastic bag.
2. If the replacement battery has a vent on both sides a plug must be inserted into the unused side. DieHard batteries provide a plug molded into the positive terminal cover which can be broken free and used for that purpose.
3. Coating the new terminals with grease or battery protectant is a good idea.
4. Using a battery terminal cleaner on the new battery exposes fresh lead which makes a better connection.

How do I replace the battery cables?
What if I don't use the memory device that you had and I simply swap out the battery in the left rear quarter panel, Can I just drive it around for a while it will be OK ?
Hi - Thanks for watching! Some vehicles require registration. We recommend that you check with the vehicle owner's manual of a service/repair manual to be sure.
HOW DO I CONNECT A MEMORY SAVER? Also if the entire electrical system is down does that mean the memory settings are gone? I had to pry off the driver side lock cap to gain entry, key fob, electronic entry code all not working. Nothing electrical was working.
To be honest I don't know if you really need a memory saver for the hybrid version of the Fusion. I don't think I lost my saved radio stations.
I have to do this on my 2013 Fusion Hybrid. One thing I didnt see is, do you have to Disconnect the BIG HYBRID BATTERY somehow before replacing.
Hi - Thanks for watching! We followed the manufacturers instructions we had and didn’t have to disconnect the traction battery.
My car says charging system service now...what battery do i replace this one or the one under the hood?
Hi - Thanks for watching! We recommend that you check the vehicle owner’s manual for the correct batteries for the vehicle.
do you need to reset the BMS (battery monitoring sensor?) in the computer?
Hi - Thanks for watching! It depends on the vehicle, year model and how it's equipped. We suggest that you check the vehicle owner's manual or a service repair manual for the vehicle to be sure.
would have been nice if you said what size sockets I need to remove the fasteners. My car did not die in my driveway so I cannot just go back and forth to my garage to get the right size socket.
Hi - Thanks for watching and sharing your comment. The tool list is in the video’s description but you’re right, mentioning that 10mm wrenches were used during the video would have been helpful.
Does anyone know the part number for the access panel..? Can’t find one online anywhere
Hi - Thanks for watching! We suggest that you check with the dealership parts department. That's what we do when we need something like that.
I went out to a dead 14' Hybrid so no chance of memory saving. Changed the battery and now have Hill assist, Advancetrac, traction control, and steering codes showing up. I cant drive now, help!!
Hi - Thanks for watching! We think that computer resets may be required using a scan tool with the proper software for your vehicle. Consulting a service/repair manual for the vehicle and the vehicle's owner's manual should also provide the information you need for next steps.
Have a 13 fusion hybrid the hybrid battery needs charged the main battery is fine the car won’t start how do I charge the hybrid battery
I have 13 and had the same problem. Found the 12 volt battery was going bad and had to change. I kept having to boost it
@@D-Major_Beats how much was the battery?
@@Pitman556 150
Is it the same thing as Ford Fusion Energi? The plugin hybrid?
Hi - Thanks for watching! We are not sure,so we suggest that you check the vehicle owner’s manual or a service/repair manual to be sure.
I am wondering if this is the same battery and procedure for the 2015 Ford Fusion Energi ?
Hi - Thanks for watching! We haven’t has the chance to replace the battery in that vehicle yet, so we recommend that you check the vehicle owner’s manual or a service/repair manual to be sure.
Exact same procedure
Hello, does the battery management system need resetting after 12v battery change? If so how is this done, thanks?
Hi - Thanks for watching! Check out our videos on battery registration. The links are in this video's description.
I do love my Ford Fusion, but everything is such a project to do. I had a 2006 Ford Taurus and every repair was simple and straight forward. These new cars are so over engineered.
Hi - Thanks for watching and sharing your opinion!
Can someone please tell me where I can purchase the battery access panel please!!!
Hi - Thanks for watching! We usually try the dealership parts department for things like that.
@@TheBatteryShop Thank you, have asked my local dealer but they are struggling to find it.

How important is a computer memory saver??? Doesn't Microsoft "SYNC" take care of that?, (as it recently has in the past)? Or does disconnecting the 12 volt entirely throw THAT out the window? LOOK, to whom it may concern, I need that one piece of info. BEFORE I tackle this, (as in yesterday). Your timely thoughts would be SERIOUSLY appreciated in the next 12 hours. It is now 5:25pm daylight savings time on 3/19/22. PLEASE...ANYBODY?!?? (Yeah, good luck with that right?)
Hi - Thanks for watching! We suggest that you either check with a service/repair manual for the vehicle or use memory saving to be sure. Check out our video on Memory Saving. The link is in this video's description.
It's not crucial. Worst case scenario you have to reset your clock and radio presets. The computer will also need to relearn some idle and fuel trim settings. There is a formal procedure to do so but just driving it will also the trick.
What if i don’t use a memory saver? What problems will that create? 🤔
I am currently having the same problem...I haven’t used the car for 3 weeks and it is dead...How do I charge the battery?
Jessica, you will loose the memory presets on the radio, the seat, and window. All these are no big deal. The car will also loose a couple of its memory settings like the fuel settings. So... “IF” you were to just start driving it immediately (after changing the battery) you “may” notice the car running a lil’bit differently until the car RE-TEACHES itself the proper settings. You can avoid it running a lil’bit differently by simply letting the car run for 5-6 minutes (after changing the battery) before you drive it and it will RE-TEACH it’s self.
Either way, it’s not a big deal at all. A “memory saver” is simply a 12 volt source hooked up to the positive and negative posts under the hood where you can jumpstart the car. There’s a photo of these posts in the manual that came with the car.
To: WM1019,
Use the jumpstart posts under the hood to jumpstart the car.
Then simply drive the car around immediately and the alternator will automatically recharge the battery that starts the car. “IF” the alternator does NOT charge the battery, THEN you know that the alternator or the battery is junk.
Auto-parts stores will usually check your battery condition for free.
Batteries don’t last forever, they do need to be replaced several times throughout the life of the car. The alternator “should” last the life of the car, but they do wear out depending on the conditions you drive in.
@@TheGreatUSA you can use a battery pack and a OBD cable to obd port to keep all the settings
Just a little problem when it is freezing cold outside in front of your house, and your car decided to die on me.
My Ford fussion energi 2016 can't be started even it was charged full before. Is the 12V battery dead? How can I do?
@@TheBatteryShop Thank you. I replaced the battery and it's ok now.
Why not add a tool list with the size of the sockets / wrenches !?
Hi - Thanks for watching and for your suggestion! We usually do mention the wrench size being used but thought seeing the wrench size on the socket would work as well. We can see that it didn't so we we will be sure to mention tool sizes in future videos.
if you need a tool list then you should not be working on cars ! GEEEZZZZZ
@@mronemanband1 convenience, especially if you have a messy tool bag or set up.
By the way, I just replaced mine and used a 10mm socket for all the bolts
It's typically a 10mm for every car I've replaced batteries on.
Are you done?!😂 And a year later, the new owner will contact you with a complaint about the battery... After installing a new battery, the BMS reset procedure is absolutely necessary🎉. You haven't heard about it?)))
Hi - Thanks for watching! Please check out our video on battery registration. The link is in this video’s description.
What if you do this without using a memory saver?
Hi - Thanks for watching! Please check out our video on memory saving for the answer to all your questions. The link is in this video's description.
what is a memory saver and where do you get one?
A memory saver is something to plug into the vehicle while you change the car battery that keeps the computer in the car alive! This means it will save all of your settings for you while the car does not have power. You can find memory savers at major retailers such as Amazon, AutoZone, Home Depot, and Walmart along with many others!
Is it a huge deal if I don’t have a memory saver?
Hi - Thanks for watching! It is with some vehicles. Check out our video on Memory Saving. The link is in this video's description.
I bought a used fusion that is missing the small battery access panel cover. Cannot find a replacement part number no matter how much googling I do. Does anyone know what the OEM number or a place I can buy one?
I just pulled mine off and looked to try to get you a part number and ... there is no number on mine anywhere!! pretty odd

this car is such a headache to own
It seems like it! A friend of mine has one always seems like something's going out on it
145,000 miles and no issues on my fusion energi titanium
@@TomCook1993 that's good to know, I'm at 75 k starting to worry alittle, even though it's driving just like the day I brought it. I've heard nightmarish stories about repair cost on hybrid cars
@@Lordpianz I had to get a new transmission at 100k.
My 2014 energi titanium just reached 90k and it smells like rotten eggs, hopefully changing battery will fix the problem
