What is servicing the battery/cables all about?
\n\n
In order for everything to operate properly in your car, the battery and its cables should be in optimal condition. By its very nature, a battery can cause corrosion, and cables can become loose or frayed, or touch other parts of the under hood area. Checking that all is well with the battery and its attachments is a wise idea for trouble free motoring.

Keep in mind:
\n\n
\n- Battery acid is extremely corrosive, and caution is advised.
\n- There is potential for electric shock when working with these components. Leave this work to one of our expert technicians.

How it's done:
