So totally agree, practically need an engineering degree. Good thing I have one😁. I guess me, you tube and whole bunch of sockets will be trying to do this later today.
Thanks so much for this. The battery died at work, and I couldn't get it jumped so I went and got a new battery and as all the guys at work watched I put it in like it was my job, with all the right tools and no hesitation. I'm a 57 year old woman. :-) I saved myself some money and am proud of what I did.
Thanks for this video! Getting that crazy distribution block off the top of the battery wasn't happening till you showed the secret screwdriver trick. Nicely done!
Great video. It actually took me longer to watch the video than it did to change my battery! Thanks to those rocket scientists at General Motors who never miss an opportunity to make a simple procedure complex. I will sleep better knowing my battery is so securely held by all those clips. Even if I roll my truck I know the battery will still be sitting right where it should be. Now I think I will go test that theory, wish me luck :D)
Thank you for taking the time to do this video. I'm a 58-year-old woman who just changed her own Colorado battery thanks to you! I'm forever in your debt since I live 15 miles from the nearest garage and my mechanic's schedule is literally 7 days behind schedule. Happy New Year!
I just bought a 2015 Canyon. My Lord, what a scrappy design. I could swap my 2003 Trailblazer battery in 10 minutes. Glad this video dropped into my feed, this will prepare me for that day. Thanks for the clear instructions!
Thanks so much...followed this video step by step and install went perfectly. Can't believe how many steps and sockets were needed to install the battery, but thankfully your video got me through it without a hitch.
This video has been up for a while, but I decided to look at it since my original battery has been in my 2015 GMC Canyon for over 9 years (not a typo), It is obviously time to think about a replacement (ya think?) and fortunately, I found your video. Very detailed and a major time saver for those of us who have not tackled this project yet. Kudos for a job well done!
I've changed a lot of car batteries over the years but every car and truck is a bit different on the install. This fantastic video made my job so much easier. I had all the tools in hand first, used the flathead screwdriver trick to remove the fuse box and it was a breeze! Thanks so much for the amazing content.
I can't believe I had to Google how to change my battery in my 2015 Colorado. Thank you so much for the instructional video. I'm certain I would have broken/ripped apart a lot of pieces without it. I first checked my owner's manual and it wasn't even in there. And a special thanks to GM for making it so difficult...does anyone know if there is a reason for it to be held in so tightly?
The reason is simple, the engineers never have to do the work themselves. Additionally the more difficult it is the more they force people to go to the dealer to get it done therefore they make more money and you keep less of yours.
Thanks for this video. Definitely is more complicated than removing terminal wires and the holding clamp. When I first looked at the battery, wondered about even attempting to replace it. I think I can do it now.
It's probably better you do it than having an auto parts company do it because they will probably break something trying to figure out how to get it out.
When I first looked at the battery, I thought, ‘This will need to be done at the dealer or a garage.” The earliest anybody would schedule me was 3 weeks away. RUclips time. This video is great, I never would have figured this out and this video made it easy. Thanks!
Parents have a 2017 GMC Canyon and we left to travel a bit and before I could leave town my battery died. Popped the hood and thought I was looking at something alien on the battery. Thanks for the great info and thoroughness.
Watched this twice before installing mine. Made it super easy, 20 mins. That flathead screwdriver taking off the plastic piece tip is worth money. Thanks!
Thanks for the video.. my battery got hit by -20 weather before Christmas and took a dive.. It was the original battery from 2016 so it kept up pretty good.. I got a raplacement and wanted to check to make sure if there was anything I should be aware of and found your video.. perfect explanation of the 'secret tip'.. worked like a charm.. old battery out and new installed less than 15mins tops.. thanks again.. 🙂👍
Tried to get this done at a local auto supply store, but it became very clear that the removal and install was beyond the salesperson. I had never seen a battery like that before, and I wanted to make sure someone competent did it, so I went to the dealer. Your video explained it very well. I will bookmark it, and in another 4 years, check it out and do this myself. Fabulous step-by-step description. I compliment you for it and and will subscribe.
This video got me back on the road. It was easy to follow and I felt like someone was patiently walking me through it the whole time. Thank you so much!
Dude...you have NO idea the pain that you have saved me. I thought my wife's import was a pain to swap batteries...this is an entirely a new level. If you had not come up with the screwdriver release, the sliding the battery left, then forward, I would still be out there cussing!!!
Much appreciated! Surprisingly, I had figured out the "secret tip" already, but the side and back clamps had me pinned down. Big kudos on your presentation; if you don't instruct, you should. Your voice and speak rate make an explanation worth hearing. Cheers!
As others mentioned thank you for the clear step by step change out and especially the secret clip to remove the battery cover... Man... Saved me cracking the cover and tons of wasted effort just to change a battery.
I long for the days when you removed the negative cable, removed the positive cable, lifted the battery out, then reversed the process to install the new battery. Battery replaced in less than 10 minutes. You could do it in a parking lot with one socket wrench.
Ok,,,I gotta say, this was extremely helpful!!! Because, if you dont know about the clips on the bottom, the ones you cant clearly see, it's going to really SUCK trying to pry out the 58# battery while reaching over and not wanting to scratch the fender. THANKS VERY MUCH!!!!! A simple thing made easier.
THANK YOU! I had to change my battery today and there is a below zero wind chill. I did not want to spend any more time than necessary out there so i watched your video. I am not sure how long I would have spent out there with numb fingers trying to feel how that clip comes of the top panel on the left side with a screw driver. There is a good chance that eventually cold fingers vs brittle plastic would have eventually lead to a broken part. (my + flap is already broken like yours did) Thanks again.
Excellent video! Would've taken a lot of time to figure out how to replace the battery, but your video solved that. I'm glad you shot different angles of the battery, that was very useful! Changed the battery in my ZR2.
Thank you soooooo much for making this video!! Especially the part taking the plastic off. The tip with the screwdriver saved me time, a headache and probably a few swear words!! 😂😂
Excellent step-by-step video. Thank you, you made my GMC Canyon battery change easy. It sure ain't like the old days of removing the terminal cables and then the battery. I would add: step 0 - use an ODB II memory protector. When I disconnect the negative cable I use a plastic grocery bag to wrap the cable end and then I use a plastic wire tie to hold the cable away from the battery to be sure that it doesn't accidentally fall back against the terminal. I recommend getting a pair of oil-based battery terminal protectors. Finally, I use a 13/16 spark plug socket with a small mallet to tap the cables securely onto the new battery terminals (an old habit) and then tighten them.
Thank you soooo much for this video. Imagine my surprise when I lifted the hood of my Colorado to change the battery and saw that! My first thought was that for the first time in my life I might actually have to have a professional replace my car battery? Went through a few videos until I got to yours and you walked me through it. Thank you. Great job.
Hey thanks for doing this video and the editing. I watched it last night outside an AutoZone in Colorado and the only thing keeping my hands from freezing was the engine heat haha. My battery just wouldn't budge, so I searched for a video on the topic and found this one. Saved me a lot of time and swear-jar donations. Haha.
Appreciated every aspect of this video. Good lighting, nice camera angles…and the comment on that “nifty” negative terminal clamp. Thank you. I’d like to remove my front front fairing as a suggestion of a video.
Thanks for the appreciation of the work involved in setting up cameras and lighting, it's not easy! As far as a "front fairing", all I could find on that is something to do with motorcycles? Is there another name for what you are referring?
Great work! Battery died in '16 Colorado this morning. Took about an hour taking my time. Didnt have a deep well 13mm, but a offset 9/16 wrench did the trick for the clamp bolt. You saved hours of frustration!
The first thing I want to thank you for your video you made it easy to switch out the battery thank you very much for your time and effort in the video very well explained step by step thanks again buddy
beware that the nuts on the fuse studs my come loose as your working on the battery-make sure that they are tight or the voltage may not get to the starter-this is still a super video!--thanks
Your instructions were dead on perfect! Thank you! The only tip I would add is that after you move the battery away from the fender well, you need to elevate the positive terminal end of the battery to disengage the low profile hold downs before sliding the battery toward the front of the vehicle to disengage the back hold down. Thank you for your video! It’s the best one out on RUclips especially the tip on how to remove the positive terminal fuse assembly.
Hey I'm actually stuck in the autozone parking lot right now swapping the batt out on my 2017 Colorado for the first time and it's getting kinda dark, I'm sooo glad you made this video lol thank you, that screw driver trick was a life saver🙌
Great informative video. The little tricks you showed made this a super easy battery swap. Watching the video took longer than the actual work on my Canyon diesel. I even ate 2 donuts during the swap. Thank you.
I drove Silverado trucks my whole life and the new trucks, my 2015 and 2018 batteries went out at almost exactly 2 years. I have a 2022 Colorado now for gas mileage and it looks much easier to change the Colorado battery. On a Silverado you have braces to remove and it's on passenger side back in the corner. Good video
Thanks for the help. Another video left out the part where there are bottom clips holding the battery in place. Put it all back together before finding your video. Easy the2nd time with your help. Cheers!
Well, I just did mine thanks again for the tips, only issue i had was couldn't get the nut off the other end of the positive terminal, was afraid of breaking something, I was able to wiggle the old batt out and the new one in even with that plastic junction thingy still attached luckily. It looks like an H7 could fit, wonder if anyone has tried, searches say h6 and h7 are same width and height, but the h7 is 1.4 longer, and there are stops on the bottom of my 2020 tray that sure look like they're about that far forward of the battery? Again best video ever for this replacement!
Thank you for sharing this video 👍 I saved myself about 70 bucks changing it myself 😀 and if you didn't show me step by step how to do it, I probably would have broken something and or shocked myself LOL God bless!!
Excellent Video, Thank YOU! My next project is replacing the Canyon/Colorado brake master cylinder. Have you considered a video on the Master Cylinder?
Thanks for the great video. It was very helpful when I needed to remove the battery on my 2017 Colorado. I found your trick using a screwdriver to pop the release mechanism on the positive side plastic cover very helpful!
I did not see you put back the black triangular shape piece you took out at 6:25. I guess you insert it back when the battery is clipped before you screw in the e tie down bolt? How does that triangular thing holds? Thank you for very good this video !!
Have you done a video on the 2016 colorado full spark plug replacement. The intake manifold has to come off. I would greatful if you have or do it soon. It is time for spark plugs . Thanks
I have not made a "soon to be released" video on spark plug replacements yet. Is there none on the internet? If not then I should make one soon to be the 1st!
Can't believe I had to resort to 'RUclips' on changing a battery. Nice instructions on it. Me and plastic do not get along! Couldn't get that plastic fuse block off the battery. I know I better be gentil. All these hold downs are crazy. Where is gonna go? O well its done Thanks again
Thank you thank you thank you. You made replacing the battery on my 2016 colorado more doable. Just finished, took me alittle longer than you😊, but it's done thanks to your very informative video.👍

Miss the days when it was 2 bolts and the battery was removed 😀. Thx for the detailed review on this
It's been a while since the old days of changing out a battery, until this, I didn't realize the manufacturers could make it so difficult lol.
So totally agree, practically need an engineering degree. Good thing I have one😁. I guess me, you tube and whole bunch of sockets will be trying to do this later today.
Thanks so much for this.

I totally love that!!!! I too am a woman and I do a lot of maintenance on our trucks.
Thanks for this video! Getting that crazy distribution block off the top of the battery wasn't happening till you showed the secret screwdriver trick. Nicely done!
Sweet!
Omg that's where I was so simple yet well anyways couldn't have done it without that trick. Not as fast anyways!! 🤔🤔😂🤣😂
Great video. It actually took me longer to watch the video than it did to change my battery! Thanks to those rocket scientists at General Motors who never miss an opportunity to make a simple procedure complex. I will sleep better knowing my battery is so securely held by all those clips. Even if I roll my truck I know the battery will still be sitting right where it should be. Now I think I will go test that theory, wish me luck :D)
LOL, the battery is actually safer than we are if there were to be an accident. :/
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
Thank you for taking the time to do this video. I'm a 58-year-old woman who just changed her own Colorado battery thanks to you! I'm forever in your debt since I live 15 miles from the nearest garage and my mechanic's schedule is literally 7 days behind schedule. Happy New Year!
So good to hear we could help you out!
@@28TrucksTravel thanks, specially the screwed driver tip!
Perfect!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Was able to do it myself … with your detailed instructions. Save some $! From another 57 year old woman.
You're Welcome!
Thank you for the most comprehensive and easy to follow instructions on how to change the battery on a Colorado on the internet!
I just bought a 2015 Canyon. My Lord, what a scrappy design. I could swap my 2003 Trailblazer battery in 10 minutes. Glad this video dropped into my feed, this will prepare me for that day. Thanks for the clear instructions!
Thanks so much...followed this video step by step and install went perfectly. Can't believe how many steps and sockets were needed to install the battery, but thankfully your video got me through it without a hitch.
That little screwdriver tricker for the removal was insane! I struggled for so long for it to just pop off! Thanks for the tip!
I know, I spent over and hour trying to figure it out!
This video has been up for a while, but I decided to look at it since my original battery has been in my 2015 GMC Canyon for over 9 years (not a typo), It is obviously time to think about a replacement (ya think?) and fortunately, I found your video.

Thank you and it really is completely unbelievable how hard they made it LOL.
I'm doing the same thing for my GF GMC Canyon
Wow! 🙄 The trick to get the fuse block off the top may sound SOOOO simple but it's DEFINITELY a GAME CHANGER Was feeling like such an idiot!!!!
The reason is simple, the engineers never have to do the work themselves. Additionally the more difficult it is the more they force people to go to the dealer to get it done therefore they make more money and you keep less of yours.
Ya was feeling like a failure until this comment 😂
Thanks for this video. Definitely is more complicated than removing terminal wires and the holding clamp. When I first looked at the battery, wondered about even attempting to replace it. I think I can do it now.
It's probably better you do it than having an auto parts company do it because they will probably break something trying to figure out how to get it out.

I thought the same thing when I first started!
Can you post a video on how to replace the positive cable from the battery to the fuse panel? Getting the cable under the fuse panel looks tricky.
I don't see myself doing that in the future but good idea!
One of the best step-by-step videos I've seen.👍 Surprisingly reinstalling the removable hold down clamp was very easy. Thank you so much.
Thanks, before doing this myself I watched another "step by step" video and they left out half of the steps lol.
Parents have a 2017 GMC Canyon and we left to travel a bit and before I could leave town my battery died. Popped the hood and thought I was looking at something alien on the battery. Thanks for the great info and thoroughness.
Yep, I don't know what Chevy was thinking when they made it!

Right on!

It is really inspiring to hear stories like yours and how we've help!
This video got me back on the road. It was easy to follow and I felt like someone was patiently walking me through it the whole time. Thank you so much!
This was great help! I couldn't have done it without you!
This was extremely helpful. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much for the video. Definitely not simple and that trick with the fuse block is a life saver!
Very well done and professionally explained. I found this to be very helpful and confidence building. Thank you.
Glad I could give you and others confidence!
Dude...you have NO idea the pain that you have saved me. I thought my wife's import was a pain to swap batteries...this is an entirely a new level. If you had not come up with the screwdriver release, the sliding the battery left, then forward, I would still be out there cussing!!!
LOL, I went through ALL that so you didn't have too!
Much appreciated! Surprisingly, I had figured out the "secret tip" already, but the side and back clamps had me pinned down. Big kudos on your presentation; if you don't instruct, you should. Your voice and speak rate make an explanation worth hearing. Cheers!
Appreciate the video. The trick for removing the fusebox assembly mounted on the battery was very helpful.
Yeah, otherwise it's almost impossible
I just finished and it was a job for me, but I did it and I would have never been able to do it without your video! Thanks so much!!!
Now you're ready to tackle even tougher projects!
As others mentioned thank you for the clear step by step change out and especially the secret clip to remove the battery cover... Man... Saved me cracking the cover and tons of wasted effort just to change a battery.
Glad to save you a broken cover!
One of the best instructional videos out here. Thanks a lot!!
One of the best comments out there!
Many thanks, saved me at least an hour trying to figure this out.
Glad it helped
I long for the days when you removed the negative cable, removed the positive cable, lifted the battery out, then reversed the process to install the new battery. Battery replaced in less than 10 minutes. You could do it in a parking lot with one socket wrench.
I agree! I had no idea till I got this new truck that they could make something so easy, so complicated lol.

THANKS VERY MUCH!!!!! A simple thing made easier.
Thank you so much! I would have never been able to replace the battery without your well spoken and in depth explanation. Not all heros wear capes.
Thanks for the kind words!
Saving the planet one battery terminal at a time :D
THANK YOU! I had to change my battery today and there is a below zero wind chill. I did not want to spend any more time than necessary out there so i watched your video. I am not sure how long I would have spent out there with numb fingers trying to feel how that clip comes of the top panel on the left side with a screw driver. There is a good chance that eventually cold fingers vs brittle plastic would have eventually lead to a broken part. (my + flap is already broken like yours did) Thanks again.
So glad we could help you get out of the cold as soon as possible!
Excellent video! Would've taken a lot of time to figure out how to replace the battery, but your video solved that. I'm glad you shot different angles of the battery, that was very useful! Changed the battery in my ZR2.
Glad my 2 camera angles paid off!
Thanks for this. Saved me much frustration of figuring out those tips on my own.
Thank you soooooo much for making this video!! Especially the part taking the plastic off. The tip with the screwdriver saved me time, a headache and probably a few swear words!! 😂😂
And I saved you a repair bill!
Thank you very much. I was getting really frustrated with what should be a simple process. Excellent instructional video.
Its very frustrating for sure!
Excellent step-by-step video. Thank you, you made my GMC Canyon battery change easy. It sure ain't like the old days of removing the terminal cables and then the battery.
I would add: step 0 - use an ODB II memory protector. When I disconnect the negative cable I use a plastic grocery bag to wrap the cable end and then I use a plastic wire tie to hold the cable away from the battery to be sure that it doesn't accidentally fall back against the terminal. I recommend getting a pair of oil-based battery terminal protectors. Finally, I use a 13/16 spark plug socket with a small mallet to tap the cables securely onto the new battery terminals (an old habit) and then tighten them.
Thank you soooo much for this video. Imagine my surprise when I lifted the hood of my Colorado to change the battery and saw that!

Went through a few videos until I got to yours and you walked me through it. Thank you. Great job.
Good to hear our video was the one to finally help you out!
Did mine yesterday everything went nice and smooth after watching your video thanks .
Good to know!
Great video! Perfect pace, I basically did it side by side with you. Thanks!!!😊
Hey thanks for doing this video and the editing. I watched it last night outside an AutoZone in Colorado and the only thing keeping my hands from freezing was the engine heat haha. My battery just wouldn't budge, so I searched for a video on the topic and found this one. Saved me a lot of time and swear-jar donations. Haha.
Glad you didn't freeze!
Nice review. The tip on how to remove the top plastic assembly was very helpful. It no doubt saved me some time.
and it saved you from having to buy a new plastic part after potentially breaking it off! Thank you!
Excellent how to video! A must watch if this will be your first time changing your Colorado battery. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words!
Appreciated every aspect of this video. Good lighting, nice camera angles…and the comment on that “nifty” negative terminal clamp. Thank you.
I’d like to remove my front front fairing as a suggestion of a video.
Thanks for the appreciation of the work involved in setting up cameras and lighting, it's not easy!
As far as a "front fairing", all I could find on that is something to do with motorcycles? Is there another name for what you are referring?
Thanks for the Video and Instructions... battery died and your video was extremely helpful!
Sorry to hear about your battery dying but glad we could help!
Great work! Battery died in '16 Colorado this morning. Took about an hour taking my time. Didnt have a deep well 13mm, but a offset 9/16 wrench did the trick for the clamp bolt. You saved hours of frustration!
Super we could save you hours of your time!
The first thing I want to thank you for your video you made it easy to switch out the battery thank you very much for your time and effort in the video very well explained step by step thanks again buddy
Glad I could be of service!
Fabulous! I got the battery out easily and I will watch the video again tomorrow before I install the new one. Thank you!
Thanks for the 2x watch time!
beware that the nuts on the fuse studs my come loose as your working on the battery-make sure that they are tight or the voltage may not get to the starter-this is still a super video!--thanks
Thanks for that helpful tip!
Thank you!!! I just changed this thing in like 20 mins in a sketchy ass neighborhood in memphis. Im glad i watched this before i got there.
Glad the video helped you speedily get through it!
Thanks for posting this! The tip for removing the casing was especially helpful.
Yes, I can't believe Chevy didn't provide those instructions to owners.
I just changed my battery using this video as a guide. Thank you so much! Great help!
You are welcome!
Your instructions were dead on perfect! Thank you! The only tip I would add is that after you move the battery away from the fender well, you need to elevate the positive terminal end of the battery to disengage the low profile hold downs before sliding the battery toward the front of the vehicle to disengage the back hold down. Thank you for your video! It’s the best one out on RUclips especially the tip on how to remove the positive terminal fuse assembly.
Thanks for the added tip and good to hear we helped you!!!
Awesome instructions. Followed everything you said and replaced battery with no issues. GMC sure doesn't make life easy.
I hope GM puts me in charge of the next battery placement design lol.
All Points Overland... Thank you so much for making this video. It made changing the battery in my Colorado a snap.
That was nice of you to say!
Fantastic video! Thank you so much for posting this. Your attention to detail is fabulous!
Thank you so much for saying that and so happy I could help with your battery process.
Thank you for this excellent video. You saved me a lot of grief on the fuse box removal!
Glad I could help you out!
Thanks so much for making this video. Followed right along and got it done on the first try.
Fantastic!
Thank you so much, this video is very helpful! That plastic cap is a pain in the neck indeed.
Yes we didn't realize how helpful this video would be until after we posted it!
Thank you for the great video. I'm sure you have probably saved me a lot of time and more importantly a ton of frustration !!
You're welcome!
Thank you for this. It helped me swap out the battery in my 2016 Colorado. Excellent tutorial video!
You're welcome!
Great video! I have the same colour and model of Colorado…love it! Swapped the battery for a new one today. Thanks!
It's an awesome color, thanks!
Hey I'm actually stuck in the autozone parking lot right now swapping the batt out on my 2017 Colorado for the first time and it's getting kinda dark, I'm sooo glad you made this video lol thank you, that screw driver trick was a life saver🙌
We like hearing comments like this!
Thank you, you were very helpful on showing me how to take out my battery. Super clear instructions and demonstration.
Glad it helped
Your tips about using the screw driver sure saved me today....thanks a ton
It took some trial and error for me so I'm glad it saved you some time!
Outstanding, I just changed my battery in a 2015 chev colorado. So much easier with the video. Thanks
You're welcome!
Great informative video. The little tricks you showed made this a super easy battery swap. Watching the video took longer than the actual work on my Canyon diesel. I even ate 2 donuts during the swap. Thank you.
I wish I had 2 donuts on my battery swap.
Thanks for the video. Big help. Great explanation. Oh and despite your warning i cracked the positive terminal cover 😂😩
Chevy will get you fixed up! Thanks
This video saved me from being late for work, today.
Can I get an "at·ta·boy" from your boss?
Was very Helpful. Now I can do it myself..
Nice video. Shows all the pitfalls and tips.
Thanks
This was great. Thank you again!
Can you do a video changing the spark plugs?
Thanks for the video. It really came in handy in helping me change my battery
Anytime Rick!
I drove Silverado trucks my whole life and the new trucks, my 2015 and 2018 batteries went out at almost exactly 2 years. I have a 2022 Colorado now for gas mileage and it looks much easier to change the Colorado battery. On a Silverado you have braces to remove and it's on passenger side back in the corner. Good video
I didn't know Chevy could make it any more difficult lol.
Thanks for the help. Another video left out the part where there are bottom clips holding the battery in place. Put it all back together before finding your video. Easy the2nd time with your help. Cheers!
Yep, our video is the most thorough out there! Good to hear we helped you!
Thank you very informative. Shows exactly what you need to do.
Thank you for detailed explanation! You saved me.😊
Well, I just did mine thanks again for the tips, only issue i had was couldn't get the nut off the other end of the positive terminal, was afraid of breaking something, I was able to wiggle the old batt out and the new one in even with that plastic junction thingy still attached luckily. It looks like an H7 could fit, wonder if anyone has tried, searches say h6 and h7 are same width and height, but the h7 is 1.4 longer, and there are stops on the bottom of my 2020 tray that sure look like they're about that far forward of the battery?
Again best video ever for this replacement!
Thanks so much for the awesome words!
Thank you for sharing this video 👍 I saved myself about 70 bucks changing it myself 😀 and if you didn't show me step by step how to do it, I probably would have broken something and or shocked myself LOL God bless!!
That is really good to hear we are saving people money!!!
It almost feel like he was changing the whole computer on that thing 🤣😅🤣. Great video! Thanks
Super charged!
Excellent Video, Thank YOU!
My next project is replacing the Canyon/Colorado brake master cylinder.
Have you considered a video on the Master Cylinder?
Thanks for the great video. It was very helpful when I needed to remove the battery on my 2017 Colorado. I found your trick using a screwdriver to pop the release mechanism on the positive side plastic cover very helpful!
Glad we could help!
Great job with this video. Made it very easy for me!
Awesome!
You helped me, thank god cause it was pouring rain and it was taking too long
Great video ,cant believe i needed a video to change a battery. It was very helpful, just a minor critique would be to not call a nut a bolt.
Thanks for the tip!
Do you need to use a battery tender? any issues with a radio code or anything like that after removing the battery
Some people said everything reset without a battery tender but I didn't use one and I don't recall having to reset anything except the radio channels.
Thanks changed it in 10 minutes!! Also thanks for the tip with the screw driver to get the positive side off.
Super!
Excellent vid. Everything you need to swap a battery in 2019 colorado diesel.
and a gasser too! :D
I did not see you put back the black triangular shape piece you took out at 6:25. I guess you insert it back when the battery is clipped before you screw in the e tie down bolt? How does that triangular thing holds? Thank you for very good this video !!
Have you done a video on the 2016 colorado full spark plug replacement. The intake manifold has to come off. I would greatful if you have or do it soon. It is time for spark plugs . Thanks
I have not made a "soon to be released" video on spark plug replacements yet. Is there none on the internet? If not then I should make one soon to be the 1st!
Can't believe I had to resort to 'RUclips' on changing a battery. Nice instructions on it. Me and plastic do not get along! Couldn't get that plastic fuse block off the battery. I know I better be gentil. All these hold downs are crazy. Where is gonna go? O well its done Thanks again
I know! I started changing the battery and discovered it was really difficult and then I went to YT and found nothing at the time!
Thank you thank you thank you. You made replacing the battery on my 2016 colorado more doable. Just finished, took me alittle longer than you😊, but it's done thanks to your very informative video.👍
So glad we could help you!
