How do you disconnect a car battery?
There are two types of battery cable connections. The clamp type connects to a post on the battery and is held in place by a nut and bolt which squeeze the sides of the clamp tightly around the post. Disconnect by loosening the clamp's nut and then wiggling the clamp off of the post, start with the negative cable (black one). The bolt on type (sometimes referred to as 'side terminal' type) is bolted directly to the battery. To disconnect this type, simply unbolt it and remove the cable end from the battery. Again, start with the negative (black) cable. If the goal is not removal of the battery, but disconnection of power to the vehicle for servicing, disconnection of only the negative (black) cable is sufficient.

How do you disconnect battery of 2004 Sebring convertible for storage?
The negative cable can be removed from the post under the hood that is attached to the left wheel housing. The negative cable is only about a foot long and is connected directly from the upper post to the negative post on the battery. It would be best to remove the battery completely if it is going to be stored for a lengthy period. If you place a trickle charger on it, eventually the battery will require water to be added to it.
