Remove a fuse or connection from the solar panels and then the solar regulator connection, the remove battery terminals -ve first the +ve replace battery and the reconnect +ve and then -ve followed by connecting the solar controller and the connecting the panels to the controller, keep the terminals away from any metal and each other just in case.
