3. Installation Instructions
Follow these steps to install the L Terminal Adapter Kit:
- Prepare the Battery: Ensure the battery is disconnected from any power source and the vehicle. Identify the screw-in terminals on your battery.
- Attach the Bracket: Using one of the included bolts and a split washer, attach one end of an L-shaped bracket to a screw-in terminal on your battery. Do not fully tighten yet.
- Connect Wire Harness: Place the bolt through the end of your existing wire harness connector. Then, pass the bolt through the remaining hole in the L-shaped bracket.
- Secure Connection: Add a split washer and a nut to the bolt to complete the attachment of the wire harness to the terminal.
- Tighten Hardware: Ensure all hardware (bolts, nuts, and washers) are securely tightened. Verify that the connection is firm and stable before use.
- Repeat for Second Terminal: Repeat steps 2-5 for the second battery terminal.
Installation Options: Standard vs. Shallow
The L-shaped brackets offer two installation configurations:
- Standard Installation: The bracket extends vertically from the battery terminal, providing a higher post connection.
- Shallow Installation: The bracket can be oriented to provide a lower profile post connection, which may be beneficial in confined spaces.

4. Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your L Terminal Adapter Kit:
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all connections for tightness. Vibrations during vehicle operation can loosen hardware over time.
- Corrosion Check: Inspect the terminals and connections for any signs of corrosion. Clean any corrosion with a wire brush and a battery terminal cleaner.
- Secure Fit: Ensure the L-brackets remain firmly attached to the battery terminals and that the wire harness connectors are snug.
5. Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
