Great video on the process!

Perfect video thank you

Hi! By any chance, do you know of a reference why is the positive battery terminal for ford designed this way? Why is the terminal not the same as the simple cable and lug connection?

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

I'm not sure. But you can splice in more cable and use a traditional terminal I would think

[@bplejones4]

I can't find a heavy gauge crimper I can afford. Where can I get one?

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

just get some battery cable crimpers, splice in some extra cable with them, and use a universal battery terminal

I have a 2013 Ford edge I'm having issues with the wiring harness to the battery. Lights on the dash were going crazy all kinds of lights were showing up, check charging system kept coming on. While driving the lights went out on the dash. Please help

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Looking for info on the crimping tool

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Hi, you should be able to get a pair off amazon

[@Everydaysupercab]

I did look on Amazon. Cant seem to find them. Is there a model number on yours? ​@BigBensCarsAndCycles

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

@joeslys3313 it's locked in a room at the moment. This one should work for you a.co/d/bxNrXzc

@@BigBensCarsAndCycles This does not appear to be the same type of crimper. It appears to be for full circle metal crimp fittings?

[@tonyjenkins949]

Im having the same issues on my 2012 Ford Edge. It has something similar, and everyone is telling me the entire cable needs replaced. It's like a 1200+ dollar repair....

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

@@tonyjenkins949 you can easily rig up a standard 10 dollar battery terminal

[@richardthomas7523]

It’s called an open barrel crimper

[@leahkassandra2760]

Ok so how do you do this if you don't have all these tools? 😂

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

get a universal terminal that you can clamp the copper wire into

Hey Ben. Do you have a n email? I have a question about my ‘12 Focus and would like to send you a picture. Thanks.

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Hi, just my personal email at this moment. I've got a Facebook group and discord group, would that work for you?

[@stuartgrimm6048]

I don’t do Facebook but I could maybe get my wife to message you through that.

[@stuartgrimm6048]

I’ll try and explain here. There is a black splatter on the underside of the degass bottle. It’s kind of difficult to wipe off. At first I thought it was a/c lubricant from the rusty metal pipes that run by it. The a/c wasn’t working but it was a different hose that rubbed through on a bracket. I’m now wondering if it is fluid squirting out of the engine mount. I just found out it’s some kind of hydraulic gizmo. I also have a buzzing type of vibration in the car. It’s faint but noticeable. What do you think? Thanks

[@Wadendawater19028]

Hey Ben where can I order this?
