Battery
If you are installing a battery with a ferrite bead on the wires, as shown in the following
illustration, follow the directions in Installing the Battery (Ferrite Bead) on page 51.
If the battery does not have a ferrite bead on the wires, see Installing the Battery on page 50.
Installing the Battery
1. Remove the battery cover by loosening the four screws securing it.
These are captive screws. It is not necessary to fully remove the screws from the battery
cover.
2. Plug in the four pin battery wiring harness. The harness should snap into place, providing a
