Don't forget to use a memory saver when you disconnect the old battery. While not absolutely necessary the Passport (and many other modern vehicles) can have a very difficult time getting all smog systems back into "ready mode" to pass a state emissions test, if that's a issue where you live.

OBD Connector Memory Saver AC/9v https://a.co/d/eQN2G1D

Here's the one I use, works off 110v or 9v battery. I'd spend $30.00 and possibly save yourself headaches and extra expense.

Had a dead battery for my 18 Pilot. Called AAA and the dude came out and confirmed it was a dead battery. He had a new battery in the truck and I asked him to swap it out.

I asked him about the memory saver and he said he had a trick he can do instead. He jumped off the car and swapped the battery out while the car was running. He said he can to this on Hondas. He said he had done this 100's of times. He swapped it out in 5 min, was super fast. Did not know you could do that.

That's a real good way to fry the voltage regulator inside the alternator
