If you are trying to get the lug off a top terminal battery, the auto parts store sell a puller to pull it off, if its a side terminal just hold the wire while turning the bolt, if its stripped use a pair of vice grips. hoyt

let me guess you have side terminals. the bolt is corroded. try holding up on the cable while you trying to loosen it. i hate to tell you this but when and if it comes out it might bring the terminal on the battery out too which you will need a new battery. bandit_60
