12-Volt Battery Location
•
The 12-volt battery is located in the left front corner of the
underhood compartment.
•
The 12-volt battery is used for lighting and other low-voltage
circuits and systems.
•
The DC/DC converter acts as an alternator to charge the
12-volt battery.
•
The 12-volt battery in the Electric Ranger is different than that used
in the gasoline-powered Ranger.
– The Electric Ranger does not require large 12-volt battery
capacity due to the absence of a high current starter circuit.
– The Electric Ranger battery is a 31 amp-hour deep cycle battery.
NOTE: Never attempt to jump-start the 12-volt battery.
