I've detached the positve and negative battery cable from the battery but cannot figure out how to remove the negative battery cable to replace it. Do you have any helpful hints or ideas?

Hello,

It looks like the cable dips under the battery box and connects the engine and transmission mounting bolt. (Check out the diagrams below).

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
