Title: FD 1.6 CRDi battery terminal cover
Post by: BrendanP on January 29, 2021, 12:13:42

Looking at my partners 2011 car, it looks like there is supposed to be a cover that should clip over the battery +ve terminal. I can't remember if there is one or not, I can't remember ever seeing one and I suspect the dealer I bought the car from originally swapped out the battery, and they may not have put the cover back on.

Can anyone kindly confirm if there is such a cover, and if anyone knows the part number for it?

Plus on the right as you look at it in the car then it does have a flip type cover, well at least my old Fd has.

 As yours is missing make sure terminal covered in grease or use vasaline to protect.

Can't remember as I changed the battery terminals to better ones. I'll have to check from EPC some day.

I believe they all come with +ve terminal covers

Did not find any part number for the terminal in my EPC...
