Default Load testing battery
Is there anyway to load test the battery from under the hood in the engine area, instead of pulling up the carpet to access the rear battery entry spot in the hatch? Seems the hatch area to access the battery is kind of a pain.

There are jump start points under the hood.

The fuse box input should not be used as a jump start connection.

I would not load test from under the hood. The load is going through a long wire to the battery plus its going through fuses.
