1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. This is important to prevent any electrical shock while working on the battery.
2. Remove the battery cover. This is usually held in place by a few Phillips head screws.
3. Locate the loose wires. They will be connected to the battery terminals, but may have come loose due to vibration or corrosion.

5. If the wires are in good condition, simply retighten them using the flat head screwdriver.

7. Test the battery to make sure it is working properly.
If you are unsure about how to perform any of these steps, it is best to consult with a qualified mechanic.
