How to replace a new VRLA battery for electric wheel chairs

VRLA batteries are known for safety and are used in scooters, wheelchairs, motorcycles and cars to prevent acid spills on engine components. Electric wheel chairs use VRLA battery to prevent acid spills when traveling on uneven ground or turning over. In general, VRLA battery can be used for about 3-5 years. So you have to replace a new one when they are disabled. Here I will share my experience to help you to replace a new VRLA battery for electric wheel chairs.

1. Turn the wheel chairs off and park it.

2. Place an adjustable wrench on the negative black battery terminal nut. Turn the nut counterclockwise to loosen it and pull the battery cable off the battery. Repeat this to remove the positive red battery cable.

3. Lift the battery out of the battery box by the handle in the center of the battery.

4. Grasp a battery terminal cleaner with one-half in each hand. Twist and pull off the cap. One half has a pointed metal brush and the other half has a round metal perimeter with a hole in the middle.

5. Insert the pointed brush into the battery cable ends and turn it left and right to clean them. Insert the round end's hole onto the battery terminals and turn the cleaner to clean the exterior of each terminal.

6. Place the VRLA battery in the battery box. Position it with the negative and positive terminals on the same side as the original battery.

7. Place the positive red battery cable on the positive battery terminal. Turn the nut on the cable clockwise to tighten it with an adjustable wrench. Replace the negative black battery cable in the same manner.
