Did somebody tell you there was a post under there? They are talking about the battery post. If your battery has side mount terminals, it has no posts, and the side mounts are a nightmare to charge up. But it can be done. Is the battery getting weak? Did you check the water? Check the electrolytic stuff to see if it is worth charging. One of those floaty ball things. Walmart will check it for you for free, they like selling batteries. Your alternator should be charging the battery, unless it has been sitting a while. Hope this helps.
Testimonial: "Great response and help!"
There might be a spot under the hood, maybe that is what the guy is talking about. You would have to jump through the main fuse/relay box, to get juice to the battery, the ground can hook to any metal part, the charger will tell you if you are connected or not. All of the hot wires are protected against a short, they have big plastic blocks holding it on to the fender or any metal part. I would feel safer getting the seat out, that way you can check the fluids in there. Check it out.
I just found out what it is, the terminals up front under the hood are for jumping, the battery is in the trunk, right side. You should be able to find both no problem. Hope this helps.

Hi. Is there a way to charge the battery without opening the back seat? The backseat doesn't want to open (though I know the battery is there. Can it be charged in another place? Thank you for all your help!
