Battery Terminal

The battery terminal serves as the connection point between the vehicle's electrical system and the battery. Over time, battery corrosion can form at the terminal connection, keeping your battery from making a solid connection with your battery cables. Keeping the terminal free from corrosion allows the vehicle engine management systems to perform as intended. It is always good to check your battery terminals periodically to ensure it has a good connection. Use a battery brush along with terminal cleaner to remove the corrosion. Apply a terminal protector spray to protect from corrosion. If cleaning the terminal does not help, they may need to be replaced. O’Reilly Auto Parts carries replacement battery terminals and battery cables to complete your repair.
