Haval H9 battery replacement method: 1. Loosen the negative terminal nut, open the two fastening buttons of the thermal insulation cotton, and you will see the red and black insulation covers on the positive and negative terminals. Flip open the insulation covers to reveal the locking nuts; 2. Disconnect the negative terminal, use a wrench or hex socket to loosen the fastening nut of the negative terminal, then gently pry open the fastening block with a flat-head screwdriver, and then pull out the negative terminal; 3. Disconnect the positive terminal; 4. Remove the locking strap, unscrew the nut used to fix the battery's locking strap, loosen the locking strap, and then remove the battery. The Haval H9 is a mid-to-large SUV launched by Great Wall Motors, with dimensions of 4856mm in length, 1926mm in width, and 1900mm in height, a wheelbase of 2800mm, equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Last time I replaced the battery of my Haval H9 by myself, and the whole process took about 20 minutes. First, turn off the engine and disconnect the power, open the hood and locate the square battery box. Use a 10mm wrench to loosen the negative terminal first, then the positive terminal clamp. Be careful not to let metal tools touch both electrodes at the same time to avoid short circuits—I wore insulated gloves during the operation. The old battery's mounting bracket has four bolts that need to be unscrewed, and when removing it, hold it steady as the battery in this Haval is quite heavy. When installing the new battery, pay attention to the polarity—tighten the positive terminal clamp first, then secure the negative terminal. Finally, don’t forget to fasten the battery box cover. It’s recommended to choose a battery of the same specification, such as Varta or Fengfan, with the model usually being 6-QW-80. After replacement, remember to reset the one-touch window function and adjust the dashboard clock.
