• Q: How to service and repair the battery cables on 2008 Lincoln Mark LT?

  A: First step to service and repair battery cables is to place the vehicle in neutral position on a hoist. The starter solenoid positive cable terminal needs its nut removal before setting it aside for reinstallation with a torque of 12 Nm (9 lb-ft). Remove the nut for the starter solenoid wire terminal before tightening it to 5 Nm (44 lb-in) when finally reinstalling. The starter motor ground cable terminal should be tightened to 22 Nm (16 lb-ft) after installing it. You should first disconnect the battery cable harness locator on the right-hand engine mount and then remove its nut so you can set aside the battery cable lower bracket before tightening it to 10 Nm (89 lb-in). When reinstalling the frame terminal from the battery ground cable produce a torque of 30 Nm (22 lb-ft). Separate the battery cable harness locator from the radiator fan shroud before uninstalling the nut to position the generator harness terminal and the central junction box (CJB) cable terminal on the positive battery terminal and tighten it to 9 Nm (80 lb-in) at reinstall. Position the battery ground cable body terminal after removing its bolt then tighten it to 12 Nm (9 lb-ft) before reinstallation. To finish install the battery cable assembly use the same process of removal. Disconnect the battery cable harness in-line electrical connector then remove the battery cable assembly following the installation procedure.
