I tried to search this and found a couple posts that touched on this, but didn't find a solution.
Just put a new Yuasa YTZ 12S battery in my 2012 S-10. Before hooking up, I looked at the battery terminal markings and realized I was about to connect the positive bike cable to the negative battery terminal.
The new battery is exactly like the one I took out the bike and is installed the same way: terminals to the left, with positive on top and negative on bottom. Cables won't reach if I put the battery in with terminals to the right.
The old battery must have been hooked up backwards! I don't know what to do.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
