Trunk Battery

[LanderCT7]

I went to auto parts store to replace small battery in trunk, but they don’t sell them. Do I need to get it from the dealer?

Thanks

Check Tanya batteries or similar online retailer who do replacements. I put the Optima yellow top into mine and while a lower capacity has been fine with no issues.

Thanks. I’m in US. What’s part number or specs? Amazon may have it.

I went to a specialised battery supplier (Battery World) here in Oz.

They had no trouble matching the specification of the existing battery.

I think you'd have similar chains in the USA that would have a larger range than an auto-parts store.

The Tanya battery site lists the details of the batteries, you should be able to match them online in the US, given Optima are a US outfit?

As Andy says, a good battery supplier would be able to find a suitable match.

Hi,
The reference for My late 2018 (2019 Model) is YUASA HJ-S46B24L(S)

If you do a search for that you'll find suppliers in your country.

I had a problem with the Optima Yellow top where it was too wide at the bottom to fit into the compartment.

In Europe I paid 207€ for the battery.

Good Luck

That's odd, fit my 2019 no problem, build variances maybe.

Is this the right one?

The OEM battery in mine was S46B24L(S)

Beware that the +/- terminals are reversed and IIRC the posts are T1 sized.

The battery in your pic looks to have +ve to the left which is the wrong way round and the terminals may be too narrow (tho that may be adaptable),

 

[MrPastry]

S46B24L(S)
Standard battery fitted was the Yuasa HJ-S46B24L(S)
Terminal posts=T1 (Standard terminal post)
Cell layout = +ve terminal on right
Positive post = 19.5mm diameter.
Negative post = 17.9mm diameter.


S46B24R
The Yuasa HJ-S46B24R is a different fitment & not suitable.
Terminal posts=T3 (Small Japanese terminal post)
Cell layout = +ve terminal on left.
Positive post = 14.7mm diameter.
Negative post = 13.1mm diameter.

Battery not stocked in the U.S. $400 from dealer.

Check out AGM battery size 51R. Dimensions and terminal layout fit, like this one ($240):

I don't think you can replace it with a regular (flooded) lead acid battery, the charging voltage is different.

Try this " Left Negative", working like a charm, installed 2 years ago., 30k miles so far. They have more expensive one if you like.

Like you I have replaced mine wirh a Lithium battery and has been working great for at least 2 years now.

Only comment I would make is I see the above batteries are only 20Ah vs the original that is 40-59Ah. Isn’t generally an issue for normal day to day running however if someone has a couple of accessories or sits for a while with accessories on etc then could run down a lot quicker and get in a position where the vehicle won’t operate. Just my 2c.
