Repair step

2010-Present Subaru Legacy Disconnecting Battery — repair step ⌕
  • Lift the hood of your Subaru so you can access the battery.
  • Use a 10 mm hex wrench to loosen the black Ground terminal screw.
  • Remember: righty-tighty, lefty-loosey.
  • Lift the terminal up and off the battery lead, taking care not to touch the Positive terminal.
  • Move the ground terminal out of the way so that it has no chance of accidentally reconnecting, or touching the Positive terminal.
