## How to know which battery your FORD Probe takes

Easiest of all is the number plate lookup: those few characters tell us the precise variant, the engine and the original battery, so you need not check anything else.

Another route is the vehicle paperwork: the registration date places you in one of the generations listed. In the overlap years, body style is the detail that separates them.

One last check: the label on the fitted battery gives you the reference capacity and cold cranking. Match or improve those numbers, and make sure the case size and polarity suit your battery tray.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which battery does a FORD Probe take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 3 compatible batteries in total, from 53 to 61 Ah and 500 to 600 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta D59 12V 60Ah 540A, Car battery Varta D21 12V 61Ah 600A, Car battery Varta C11 12V 53Ah 500A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a FORD Probe battery cost?
Between 64.15 € and 83.99 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.

### How do I know which generation my Probe is?
By the registration year: Probe II (1992-1998); Probe I (1990-1993). If your year falls in the overlap between two generations, tell them apart by body type (hatchback, estate or coupé) or use the plate finder, which settles it with no doubt.

### Can I fit a battery with more amps?
Yes, as long as the dimensions fit the tray and the terminal layout matches. More capacity (Ah) and more cold cranking (A) do not harm the vehicle: the alternator charges it the same and you gain margin in winter. What you must never do is go below the original figures.

### How long does a FORD Probe battery last?
Between 4 and 6 years in normal use. Start-Stop batteries (AGM/EFB) tend to last slightly less in city driving because of the number of starts, but they are designed for that cycling. If the car sits unused for weeks or you notice slow cranking in the cold, get it checked.
