How’s yours for size?

BTW I'm talking engine batt, no other batt powered devices!

Not long after we got our ‘02 2.4 van I got a no start situation, all dead no lights etc. Under bonnet check revealed very slightly loose positive terminal connection, (eyelet on cable to battery post clamp slightly loose.

Nipped up & all was well.

Recently van is used as 2nd vehicle and problem arose again & more often + both terminals this time.

Spring washers sourced & during fitting noticed battery moving slightly on tray. Close inspection revealed with a bit of effort it would move rotationally quite a bit, home made extension noted on clamp bracket leading to discovery that battery was far bigger than mounting tray!

It’s a 70A/hr unit and I haven’t referred to standard spec yet.

Main issue was to get it solidly held in place.

7mm wide cable ties fitted at one end but shape of tray support stymied opposite end, but it’s SOLID now.
