LEARNING DEVELOPMENT:
The teacher will conduct a review based from the previous lesson.
Let the students answer what is being asked:
“What is battery and how it works?”
ACTIVITY
“Enumerate the parts of a battery and identify its function.”
‘” What are the symptoms/cause of problems in a battery?”
After the review the teacher will conduct a Pre-test to freshen up the minds of the students in the next lesson.
Remind the students, First, it's important to ensure the battery is disconnected from the vehicle's electrical system. This can be done by

hold-down bracket or strap. Use a wrench or a socket to remove any
bolts or screws securing the hold-down. Once removed, carefully lift
the battery out of its tray.
6. Clean the battery tray: Before installing the new battery, it's a good
idea to clean the battery tray to remove any dirt or corrosion. Use a wire
brush or a battery cleaner to scrub the tray and ensure a good
connection.
7. Install the new battery: Carefully place the new battery into the tray,
ensuring that it is oriented correctly (positive terminal on the same side
as the original battery). Secure the battery with the hold-down bracket
or strap and tighten any bolts or screws.
8. Reconnect the positive terminal: Attach the positive cable to the
positive terminal of the new battery and tighten the nut with a wrench
or a socket. Make sure the connection is secure.
9. Reconnect the negative terminal: Attach the negative cable to the
negative terminal of the new battery and tighten the nut with a wrench
or a socket. Again, ensure the connection is secure.
10. Test the battery: Once the new battery is installed, it's a good idea to
test it to ensure it is functioning properly. You can use a battery tester
or a multimeter to check the voltage and overall health of the battery.
