The battery for a Corvette C7 2014-2017 is located in the trunk passenger side. Battery replacement is not to difficult except for the fact that the size of the battery is very tight in the area it sits and it is heavy. Ozzstar's Cars shows the steps necessary to remove and replace the battery in a C7 Corvette with the tips and tricks necessary to save you time.

Thanks Glenn, I know my 2017 Grand Sport will be due soon especially living in Florida. So nice to sit here in my garage have a beer and get a heads up on how to replace the battery. As usual great content and it is so appreciated. Jim

@ozzstars_cars 2 года назад

Nice Jim! I wish we had some of that nice warm weather here in Delaware right now. Enjoy that beer!

good point about properly tightening the four nuts on the postive side ... and i used the battery strap as well ... helpful as the battery doesn't lift straight out. ... thanks.

Great video as always. For the positive side, I don’t disassemble the whole fuse bus, just remove the one 13mm connected to the cable, and loosen the 10mm on the battery post. The whole assembly will come off in one piece and go right back on the new battery. Minor difference but can reduce a step or two. AWESOME STUFF GLENN!

Saving a step is a good thing! Thanks for the support and your comment!

I know this is an old video, but I want to add a tip form those with convertibles. After getting all of that crap lose, and out of the way (if you're lucky), you can't just pull the battery up and out as easy as you can in the coupe. The fender wall is shaped differently, and the right side of the battery (lookng from the back of the car) will get caught on a little protrusion molded into the carpet. You have to pull up on the left side of the battery, stand it on it's side, and then pull it out. Of course you have to reverse that when installing the new one. Absolutely the most aggravating battery change I've ever done, and I've owned two C3 coupes with the battery behind the drivers seat. 😀

@ozzstars_cars 6 месяцев назад

It's not easy that's for sure.

@todd11lou15 2 года назад

Thanks for showing your battery swap. I’ve heard about people struggling to get the battery out. Nice to see a video of it actually being done. My car’s a 2019 so I should be good for at least a couple more years. Hope you have a Merry Christmas! Todd

@ozzstars_cars 2 года назад

You should have a little more time. Buy one of those battery handle straps I have a link listed in the description. You will thank me in a couple of years. haha It's a back saver!

GM, trying to get people in the dealership for a battery swap by blowing out a few discs in our backs ... :D Great vid. Interesting design with that buss bar and all the heavy duty fuses there. Nice of them to leave a couple optional power feeds there for a thumpin' system, or what have you. I'll probably never see one of those in here, since you need a 4x4 to get down my road, and again in my yard certain times of the year, lol. Love that shirt! That's a riot!

@sixtyfiveford 2 года назад

Gotta love battery hide and seek. BMW loves this same location. Buicks love under the back seat, but the worst is Chrysler Sebring. They make you remove the front bumper and it's hidden in front of the drivers front wheel.

@ozzstars_cars 2 года назад

I've been through the Euro trash trunk fun but having to remove the front bumper is just a plain dumb desMoe's. Have a good Christmas Moe.

AGM battery, no vent. Thanks for watching.

@jhu1928 Год назад

when I tried to re-install the positive cable back (at 8:50), the nut on mine couldn't catch the thread of the screw. Wondering if you had the same issue and how you solved it.

Not an issue here.

@carminenico1169 2 года назад

Hi Glenn im guessing no vent tube required for new battery if not OEM ?

@ozzstars_cars 2 года назад

AGM battery, no vent, don't be confused with a lead acid battery.

When changing your oem battery to the duralast. How did you like that AGM duralast and long did it last also i hope you installed the vent tube back up to your new. I'm due real soon before winter here. Thanks sir

There is no vent tube necessary on this AGM just like the original battery had no vent.

@ramindavani 2 года назад

How long those AGM batteries last? Is it true that corvettes are notorious when it come to draining batteries.

@ozzstars_cars 2 года назад

True but battery drain isn't an issue if the car is used regularly. Your mileage may vary.

No mention of the vent tube? It's easy to break the top fitting if you lift the battery out prior to unplugging it from the battery cap.

@bassb450 Год назад

@@ozzstars_cars But the ac/delco battery you took out did which is what most Corvette owners I assume will be dealing with. Whether or not the battery you are installing has the tube is irrelevant, you have to address it from the beginning considering this is a instructional video.
