2007 Lincoln MKZ Battery Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service the battery cables on 2007 Lincoln MKZ?

  A: As the first step in servicing battery cables you should take off the battery tray. You should remove the bolt before placing the ground terminal of the battery cable body to the side while tightening it to 12 Nm (9 lb-ft) during reassembly. Start by removing the terminal cover of the starter solenoid then take off the nut while placing the starter solenoid terminal aside before installation with a torque of 12 Nm (9 lb-ft). The following service requires you to remove the nut before setting the starter motor solenoid wire terminal aside while tightening it to 5 Nm (44 lb-in). Place the battery cable transaxle ground terminal to the side while releasing the battery cable locator from the engine and removing the bolt that needs to be tightened to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) when securing it back in place. The technician will free up the battery cable locator from each location: the transaxle stud bolt and the three points on the LH valve cover. Move the generator protective cover aside then remove the nut while positioning the generator B+ terminal aside before refitting and tightening this connection to 12 Nm (9 lb-ft). The end of the installation entails removing battery cables followed by executing the reverse order of steps for reinstallation.
