  Q: How to disconnect and inspect a Toyota Avalon and Toyota Solara's battery?

  A: Disconnect the negative Battery Cable, then the positive cable from the battery. If the radio in your vehicle is equipped with an anti-theft system, make sure you have the correct activation code before disconnecting the battery. Check the battery state of charge. Visually inspect the indicator eye on the top of the battery; if the indicator eye is black in color charge the battery. Next perform an open voltage circuit test using a digital voltmeter. The battery's surface charge must be removed before accurate voltage measurements can be made. Turn On the high beams for ten seconds, then turn them off, let the vehicle stand for two minutes. Perform a battery load test. An accurate check of the battery condition can only be performed with a load tester. This test evaluates the ability of the battery to operate the starter and other accessories during periods of heavy amperage draw. Install a special battery load testing tool onto the terminals. Load test the battery according to the manufacturer's instructions for the particular tool. Disconnect the negative battery cable, then the positive cable from the battery. Always disconnect the negative cable first and hook it up last or the battery may be shorted by the tool being used to loosen the cable clamps. Remove the battery hold-down clamp. Lift out the battery. Be careful - it's heavy. While the battery is out, inspect the battery tray for corrosion. If corrosion exists on the battery tray, detach the bolts and remove the tray from the engine compartment. Clean the deposits from the metal to prevent the battery tray from further corrosion. If you are replacing the battery, make sure you get one that's identical, with the same dimensions, amperage rating, cold cranking rating, etc. Installation is the reverse of removal.

  Q: How to follow when disconnecting a battery on Toyota Avalon and Toyota Camry?

  A: When disconnecting the Car Batteries, it is important to always disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal first and hook it up last to avoid shorting the battery. Additionally, it is recommended to wait at least 90 seconds after turning off the ignition switch before disconnecting the negative battery cable to allow various systems to record memory and settings. Some systems on the vehicle require continuous battery power, so it is wise to remove the key from the ignition and keep it with you to prevent accidental locking of the power door locks when reconnecting the battery. Memory-savers can be used to maintain power to certain circuits while disconnecting the battery. To disconnect the battery, loosen the cable end bolt and isolate the cable end to prevent accidental contact with the battery terminal. After reconnecting the battery, several relearning procedures may need to be performed, such as correcting the steering angle neutral point, power window initialization, sunroof initialization, smart access learning, and power trunk lid operation. These procedures vary depending on the model and year of the vehicle.
