- Detailed guide to jacking up your car and removing and reinstalling the battery.
If you need a battery installed, I'm in Los Angeles. hyun.doug@Gmail.com #Nissanleaf #Nissanleafbatteryremoval #Nissanleafbatteryinstallation #leafbattery #leafbatteryremoval #Nissanleafbattery #leafbattery #batteryupgrade #leafbatteryswitch
Thank you for the video, it's very important to know where you can put the jacks. It is much appreciated
There are ppl rebuilding leaf batteries to give longer range, and or swapping longer range batteries from late model into older models. (I forget the details)
Nice work mate. Keep going
You could’ve used a pallet jack with a few pallets on it to lower, position then re-install the battery . Hope this helps. Thanks for the video
Really nice job on the vid Doug; this is the kind of detail that makes this a realistic DIY job for a decently experienced home mechanic.
I'm just about to try this maneuver on our 2013 Leaf, replacing the original battery with a 2022 62kWh. Can't wait to see the range after we're done with the swap. The original battery is still at about 70% SOH so I'm going to use the cells for home backup, which is a nice bonus.
How did the battery replacement go ?
@@Dannyfromvegas Haven't gotten to it yet. Blew a timing belt on our van and I've been working on that.
Where did you find a 62kwh battery pack? I've been searching for one to do the same on my 2013.
@@alejandrovasquez7288 Copart. I live in the Atlanta area and I waited for one to pop up practically next door to me. Be sure you understand their fee structure and haul-off policies before placing your maximum bid.
Thank you so so so much for sharing this video my friend. I owe you a beer if you’re ever in Springfield, MO.
Nicely done, Doug!
Thank you kindly!

Hello, Mister Chinese. How are you?
This dude is brilliant. Simple ideas for a tough job. Is there an update on how everything worked out months later?
Someone should soon make an EV battery jack for the same reasons we have transmission jacks and engine removal lifts.
Great job, Replacing EV batteries with unsatisfied requirement is a very meaningful thing, If you also want to replace EV battery for your car, Pls contact us, we can provide the EV battery module of Nissan Leaf for you.
very very useful and innovative video Thanks
Thanks for the vid! Actualy thinking of getting one for church and grocery commute coz gas here in LA is $$$.might contact you if i ever end up getting one ✌️💯
I can help you choose one
This is Awesome!!!!!!!!
small note about the disconnect: when it gets stuck in the halfway position, the center tab needs to be pressed
it's a weird double-locking thing. ugh...
I had my trouble getting the lever started because the two side tabs engaged a bit too strongly. (nothing a screwdriver wouldn't help with)
Great stuff. Excellent detail and description. Thanks for sharing.
did you have to reset the new battery, so the computer can accept it?
Amazing video
Thanks Mate. Nicely done and good vid. Cheers
I have a 2011 Leaf in San Diego in great shape 65K miles, red if you want to go again on this. Only 20 miles of range. We put in a better battery and sell the car and share in profits.
Do you have a battery?
@@doughyun3428 Nope. I see that CATL makes modules for the 2011 Leaf battery now. Someone knowledgeable could rebuild the battery with these modules.
Sure thing
@@doughyun3428How do I contact you directly?
Did the BMS in the new car accept the new battery straight away? Or if not, how did you manage to get it to? Thanks. I saw a guy on youtube replace one and the dashboard came up full of errors and nothing would work. I don't know whatever happened to it as he never put up a follow up video on it.
Thanks grandpa
Hey I might have missed it but what year is your cars? Thank you.

Please make a video to illustrate how you would do this job. Raising a car on four points is inherently dangerous. If you don’t know what you’re doing, don’t even think about doing this or even doing an oil change.
What about just 4 blocks under the wheels, then remove the jacks?
Whare i can gett old nissan batteries
HEAD GASKET REPLACEMENT! IS WAY MORE WORK THAN THIS!.
How can I contact with you?
You are scaring me putting the car on what is essentially skinny stilts. One good rock and the whole think will come down at an angle. I guess you survived, but add blocking under the tires before getting under it again, please.
Those are jack stands, and unless they're the deadly harbor freight ones, they're fine. They're the accepted method when you don't have a lift. If you position them correctly and are on hard level ground they're very stable. I've supported a 9000# truck with them. If you're worried about it, you shake the bejeezus out of it before you get under.
I mean you should shake any vehicle before you get under it, jack stand or lift.
But yeah jack stands literally are the correct way to do this in this case, blocking the tires would be less safe because tires can roll.
