I don't know what people are thinking here...!!! Anyway, you will notice that these black and red caps have little straps on them. This should give you the hint that they can come off. Don't be afraid to tug on these suckers until they come off. Then using a 10mm socket, remove the battery bolts, negative first. Then remove the battery strap. This battery is vented, so remove the tubing carefully so as not to damage them and get the proper AC/Delco replacement. Not cheap! Oh and remember to drive your car for about 30 minutes normal driving to reset the ECM. Also, if you have a password on your stereo, remember it, or disable this feature before you start, or you will have a useless piece of scrap for a radio!

Put a battery charger on the starter solenoid terminal & a good ground,charge the battery then open trunk & replace the battery

Start with cleaning your battery terminals. If you can check voltage at the starter when trying to crank, and make sure you have good grounds everywhere. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/tom_1788908372a4836f
