"Citroen Jumper / Peugeot Boxer / Fiat Ducato/ Promaster- How To Change Your Battery

[@philc.9280]

You make some of the best repair vidio's on youtube. Clear speaking, no shaking or waving of the camera that I hate. Thanks

[@aquariomadeineasy9232]

David... Thank very much for your video. English it's not my language, so I don't have all the words to say how much you helped me. May God protect you, and yours dreams. Health and peace.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you! We wish you Love, Peace, and Joy. 😀😀😀

[@Scrambler85]

In a past life I was a manager for a large automotive retail chain and I can say that is a professional level battery tutorial. And some excellent videography. Its good to see You are both healthy. The only plus to this pandemic is I am now getting weeks to the gallon of fuel mileage😭😭😭

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you J. G.! We appreciate the compliment. Initially, when checking out KZbin for a Promaster battery video I could not find any other complete videos on how to do this. We hope this video will help people save some cash in the future. That's funny you mention saving gas. Half our monthly expenses is fuel and we have also drove no where 😂

[@kelleydoolan]

Hi Dave, I just had to install a new battery in my 2018 2500. The dealership wanted $350 for the battery and $150 to install before taxes. I declined, drove to Costco and bought a better battery for $198. Your excellent video walked me right through the install perfectly. Thank you so much for taking the time to make it. It really helped. Happy trails!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

This is the best comment! We did this video because we had such a hard time finding a quality video to help us! When we bought our van we didn't even know where the battery was.

[@angrymountainbikershow3151]

For anyone else watching this, be aware there is a little plug that you need to remove from the old battery for a vent hole---opposite of the one that connects to the plastic vent tube--you can just see it at @5:13 on the end of the battery. Take it out and use it on the new battery to plug that hole. This is most easily done before you drop the new one in! Thanks for the video.

[@nancyskean6425]

Thanks so much Dave. I followed your instructions and replaced my battery! Your video took the mystery out of all those wires on the positive terminal that allowed me to take on the project. Saved me a call for help!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Right on Nancy! Way to go. We are happy to be helpful. 😀

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

[@georgea2334]

Great video. My Ram has a inverted plastic battery aligner on the bottom of the battery box so the battery can't move either way. I noticed my original battery was an 800 Amp while my new 4 year free replacement warranty from Walmart is a 900 CCA battery. It is the exact replacement. I also didn't have to remove the positive wire , only loosened clamp and the entire positive cluster came off together. Your video made the replacement very easy. My original battery was still working fine but is 5 years old so I just replaced it before it does go bad. There wasn't even dust In my battery box. Was just like new! Both batteries were identical. Cost 184 dollars at Walmart including all fees and taxes. This is in Florida. Original battery was mfg in Sept 26 2017 now is July 2022, old battery still good so that lasted very good.

[@davidyule3605]

Dave, you make the battery change so easy. Great job, once again. With Carrie’s excellent camera work, this video is a clear winner. 👍

Hi thanks for the vid. 2 things, if the vehicle is fitted with an alarm the appropriate shutdown procedure should be followed. Mine is, alarm on/off then turn ignition on . Secondly, I put plastic bags on both terminal assemblies whilst they are off to ensure there is no chance of a short!!

[@rogerz8051]

Great job! Coming up on 5 years on my original battery, so this is going to come in handy very soon. Thanks!

[@thunderbirdtahoe]

Thanks, Dave, for all your well-done and helpful videos. Here's a suggestion for a new one. I've had trouble with my battery running down while my 2019 Roadtrek Zion (built on a 2018 Promaster chassis) is in winter storage. Same problems you described here, flashing dash lights, engine won't start, key stuck in ignition. Sean at Roadtrek recommends disconnecting the battery if engine won't be started for two weeks or more. My Promaster has a quick disconnect on the negative side of the battery which requires no tools, just a gray plastic lever which you twist open to remove cable. Not sure yours has that (maybe a Roadtrek gizmo), but if not use a tool to remove negative cable. Only issues then will be that your Thule door step (if you have a Roadtrek) won't close without the battery, but not a big deal. You also won't be able to lock the passenger door using the key fob without the battery, but there is an easy manual method found at kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXnUZXeXr8isabs that you could incorporate into your video. Good plan for long-term storage of a Promaster.

[@vonrollveeg]

Wow - an understandable explanation. Good Job! These days, typically "experts" explain things. The problem is that the "expert" is so engaged with the topic they cannot understand that the thing which they pass over because it is "obvious" is not obvious to most people. We used to have a profession called "technical writer" - I don't think they're around anymore. To bad.

[@bigsilverbear4187]

Dave, GREAT VIDEO MAN! Carrie doing a great job with the camera work too. I bought a 2018 Ford Transit High Top LWB back in October. I LOVE my van. However, Dodge got it right when it came to the battery placement. Ford went and put the battery under the driver seat. It's still very easy to replace. I just think Dodge put a little more thought into the placement of the battery. I would have rather had that space under the drivers seat for other things. As you are more aware than me, space in your van is extremely precious. Even if it is under the seat. Stay safe and be blessed, Big Silver Bear

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

I need to wire in an auto shut off for our inverter. We charge our house battery when we drive from the vehicle battery. So when we forget to turn the inverter off it keeps on charging the house battery until it's dead. We have done this 2 or 3 times. Each time I am guessing takes one year off the battery 🤪 I am hoping your battery gives you 5 good years. I wonder if it's the heat/humidity there that shortens the battery life.

[@AllanTex]

Thanks for saving me a lot of money.... with all the electronics above the positive lead it stopped me dead.... I thought no way can I change this battery it looks too complicated so I called the dealership they wanted $485.00 for OEM battery Plus 85 to install it 625.00 total ... I went to discount Auto 265.00 and put it in myself thanks to your video.... By the way nobody had them in stock I had to wait 3 days for the battery you would think it's a common battery but I have a Thor RIZE camper apparently it's a special battery ....😄😄😄😄

Appreciate your careful and accurate videos. Two questions: 1. Are there no third party battery options or must you buy one from the dealership? 2. I noticed no extra wiring coming from the battery to an isolator to charge a battery bank or did I miss it?

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Awesome! Thank you for the kind words. We did look at three other 3rd party batteries at the auto part store. The battery that was equivalent to the Mopar battery was more expensive.Good eyes on the no extra wires. We removed them for the video in order to not cause confusion.

Great video.... Thank you. I was wondering if there are other benefits to going to a dealer for a battery (e. vehicle warranty). Did you look around for an after market battery? Good advice on asking about recalls. I am a HAM Radio Operator and am in the process of rigging up my ProMaster for radio use and will be using a stand alone solar powered/charged 12 volt battery for power. I will be getting a battery that will be compatible with the vehicle so that if/when my vehicle battery fails I will have a replacement battery on board. Michael from Canada

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We did shop around. We found 3 other batteries that would have worked. The aftermarket battery that was equivalent to the Mopar battery was slightly more expensive. I am not sure if it affects any of the vehicle warranties or not. I do like the idea of going to a dealership if the warranty needs to be honored. Year's back we had a auto parts store refuse to replace our defective car battery. Having a back up battery onboard is a smart move! We hope you're doing well up there in Canada. We love your country and can't wait to return. 😀

[@jar407]

this reminds me of my dads old 1955 dodge 1/5 ton panel truck the 6 volt battery was at the same spot but had a nice drom on cover . unfortunately it was low compression and warn so in winter the 6 volt battery was not strong enough so he had a used 12v jumper battery . i really liked that truck but not old enough to drive he got a 65 Plymouth sw to replace it and sold the truck sine no place to keep it for 2 yrs when i got licensed . so i recently got a 21 premaster 1500 but had not found the battery yet tnx i need to tap battery to add 2 way radio to the van

For instance, I know I need to connect my B2B charger to the positive side of my engine battery, and also the negative buss bar needs to be grounded to the van chassis, as does the inverter.

Do you know what the reasoning is behind the vehicle keeping your key hostage when the battery is dead? Happened with a friends SUV last year. Really sucks if you have to go somewhere for help and can't lock the car if you don't have a spare key with you.
