Hello,

The battery for this XJ is located in the trunk.

It is recommended to use a secondary 12V source when replacing the battery to power the vehicle, otherwise the radio will lock up and you will need the radio codes to unlock it.

I have included all the factory recommended procedures as well as best practices below.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
