MAIN BATTERY REPLACEMENT TALK - JL/JT

[Cartman]

I am looking but havent found a suitable one. I am in India
Even for our motorcycles the VARTAS are horrendously expensive since they are imported

Hm it depends...if AGM is not available, you can use any 12v battery with at least 760A and lets say 70aH. AGM are best for Start/Stop. Just turn it ofd when you start and it will be ok.

Hoping to revive this thread, I replaced my main battery and am now attempting to isolate the auxiliary battery. I have a 2024 and the negative battery terminal is a little different. Which wire do I remove, and how do I remove it? There is a piece that connects the two wires, and the smaller wire can't be removed without the other...

man its still the same. look at page 5, 6...

Went back to page 5 and 6, didn't see my answer there, looked at the video too I don't understand what Im missing...

The thinner wire to the right of the picture is the AUX negative. I just did mine.

Main Battery:

IF.... if, you do not release this black plastic retaining clip it will break... (see pic)

When you go to replace the Main battery or if for some reason you will be disconnecting the Pos side of the Main battery, do know there is a black plastic retaining clip that needs to be released with a small plastic tab just as you go to pry up the Pos cable connection...

IF you break the black plastic retaining clip, do know that it is not critical to have so don't bother trying to find/buy another... Of course, would be nice if you did not break that retaining clip.

See pic which displays the black plastic clip and the tab (just below the thumb in the pic) you need to push on it before you pry up the pos cable connection...

I just did my batteries and was surprised to find I did NOT have this clip on the positive side.....original owner , original batteries , 2021.

Wondering why mine was special?

2021. Did mine two weeks ago. It has the clip. Clip still works with an Everstart H7.

 

[zouch]

maybe we're both special?

my early '21 did not have a clip either.

@Rhinebeck01 my

Super Start Platinum 94RPLT 800 Cold Crank, 140 Reserve Capacity, 80 Amp Hours battery just died.

They were out of stock so they gave me:

Super Start Platinum 94RPLTJ 850 Cold Crank, 140 Reserve Capacity, 80 Amp Hours

The guy at the store said that it was compatible and will actually be better. Is that true or do I run the risk of damaging anything? I have a 2021 3.6L eTorque.

Same battery. Looking at their site under the Q/A they answer your question.

“Q: Besides some minor differences in the weight, CCA and CA specifications, what is the main difference between this battery (94RPLTJ) and 94RPLT? This one has “DIN” in the description but otherwise seems identical to 94RPLT.

• A:Hello and thank you for your question. The “J” in the part number indicates the supplier location as we have multiple suppliers.

Just bought this one on Amazon. I’ll report back…

How is the AC Delco battery holding up? I'm due for a new battery. Thanks
