Hi All,
I'm new to the forum and hoping I'm posting to the right section.
I've just had to replace the vehicle battery as it was not holding any charge due to lack of use this year
When I lifted the cover off the passenger side, I noted there was a brown lead coming off the positive terminal but didn't note where it was connected to - its only about 10 inches long, so assume it was somewhere in the battery compartment....when I went to put the new battery in, the cable was not connected to anything I've put the new battery in and all is working but just don't know what I'm supposed to do with this cable - as its coming off the live terminal and the cable is bare at the end, i'm a little concerned of it just floating around not connected or covered. Are there any autotrail members who might have the same cable coming off the positive terminal that can advise what it should be connected to? I've uploaded a photo - hopefully that helps.
