Just did it on my 2014. Don't have to remove the seat. Move it full forward, and up, and the battery comes out via the back seat foot well.Gotta change the battery in my grand cherokee tonighthave to remove a seat to do it.. and pray it starts after.... ugh

yeah.. was wondering if it would move forward enough.. i have to do the aux battery also to get out the main...
What's funny is, i have no issue ripping the rear end or trans out of my 62 for the fourth time... but changing this battery is pissing me off
P.S. i'm surprised your battery made it this long.. mines a 2018.. auto start started not starting and this morning had a slow turn over... figure since it's 8 degrees out i should change it rather than get stranded
If
If the battery is totally dead fire up a charger to the under hood connections to get the seat to move.

No auto start-stop junk on mine, so only one battery...but being a diesel, it's a BIG battery. And like you, it was a cold snap and my remote start didn't work one morning. Put a charger on it and it would only go to 3/4...so I changed it before it stranded me.P.S. i'm surprised your battery made it this long.. mines a 2018.. auto start started not starting and this morning had a slow turn over... figure since it's 8 degrees out i should change it rather than get stranded
I had the charger on the under hood posts while I changed it (kept the + terminal away from ground), and I didn't even have to reset my radio stations. Fired right up when done.
All you need is a 10mm socket, and an extension to get the nuts off the retainer at the base. I used a magnet on a stick to pull the nuts and retainer (hold down) out. The terminals are a goofy wedge setup, you loosen a vertical nut and it loosens the terminal clamp. You don't have to mess with the 13mm cable nuts.

Yeah.. i had a 2014 then this 2018... there is a orange wire that goes to the aux battery, you unplug it and no more auto start/stop....
My 2018 only has 29k miles but it's starting to show it's age
roads here beat it up... i have a rattle under the dash that is making me insane and i can't find it. I can't stand rattles....
