Help... changing the car battery?

My car (Chevrolet Cavalier 2002) is dead and I decided that I'm going to change the battery myself. I've read how to do it but I have one question. My car has a remote control starter in it and I was wondering if I had to do something different to install the battery? Will the starter work after the change or I have to program it or something? If it will not work tell me what to do step by step to fix itHelp... changing the car battery?look at your battery in the car and label what wires are connected to the positive and what to the negative.



unhook them all



remove the old battery



put in the new battery



hook everything up to where you labeled it.Help... changing the car battery?It'll be fine... just make sure you put all the connecting wires back to where they wereHelp... changing the car battery?just change the bettery. If remote start doesn't work, which i am sure it will, you will be able to take it to dealership and say- %26quot; it just stopped working!!%26quot;Help... changing the car battery?Your remote starter simply gets power from the battery.

It doesn't program itself to the type or model of the battery.

The starter should not be effected at all by changing out the battery.
