2018 Ford Edge battery disconnect

Recommended Posts

Is there a specific disconnect that fits into the tight spot for the negative terminal? Why can't you disconnect the positive side? There is more room to install it on the positive side. Thanks!!!

The electronic components in todays vehicles do not like any arc's in the electric system. Disconnecting the negative side does not produce those nasty arc's, positive side will if negative is still hooked up. You can use a short negative cable hooked to the battery, then put any good heavy duty disconnect at a location that is easy to reach, of course hook the present cable to the other side of the switch.

One like this can serve very well:
