so i replaced the battery on my 99 today, and when i was tightening the nut the terminal broke. it is completely broken across the part that goes on the post. can i use a generic battery cable or am i stuck getting the dealer cable. i ask because of the connector that attaches to the terminal. please help. thanks.

 

Generic should work fine.

 

how would i attach the red connector that attaches to the terminal though?

 

that was a PITA! for me, i had to do wires, mine were screwed.... Corrosion is a BISH. we just bought Generic Wires from NAPA and they have a smaller second wire that runs from the terminal, and we jsut soldered (very important) the wire inside the connector.

 

so you took the wires out of the red connector and soldered to the new terminal? what is the red connector for anyway?

 

junkyard!
