Battery Tray

BATTERY TRAY

DESCRIPTION




The battery is placed in a molded plastic tray (1) located in the left front corner of the engine compartment. The battery hold down hardware is contained within the battery tray.

OPERATION
The battery tray provides a secure mounting location and supports the battery. On some vehicles, the battery tray also provides the anchor point/s for the battery holddown hardware. The battery tray and the battery holddown hardware combine to secure and stabilize the battery in the engine compartment, which prevents battery movement during vehicle operation. Unrestrained battery movement during vehicle operation could result in damage to the vehicle, the battery, or both.
