Remove wiper assembly plastic cover. Then remove front nut that holds the cross suspension bar. Rotate suspension bar from over the battery to a new location and proceed to remove the plastic bottom mount on bottom of battery. Rotate battery up and out of compartment -- this is a very tight clearance. It will come out and the clearance is very small. This is a neat challenge. Be sure to buy proper size battery for replacemeent.
To restart your computer simply remove the positive terminal from the battery for 5 minutes.

Can anyone please tell me where the ignition switch is located on a 2000 oldsmobile silhouette?
VERY CAREFULLY !
Ours is a 1997 so this may or may not help. I had to remove the air cleaner assy, the windshield fluid reservoir and then there was a support bracket that ran from the radiator to the wheel well I had to remove. There was two bolts in the front and two that you had to access from the wheel well, once removed you could get to the battery.
I think the negative terminal is under the fuse box to the left; you can barely get to it. However to jump from or to the Silhouette, you don't need the negative terminal. To jump the Silhouette, just attach the negative cable to metal, preferably of the engine block. To jump from the Silhouette, attach the negative cable to the large bolt about 10 inches to the right of the battery.
