On these 2000 to 2005 GM full-size front-drive cars like this Buick LeSabre, as well as a Pontiac Bonneville and Buick Park Avenue, GM located the battery under the rear seat. It's actually fairly easy to get to and disconnect. We'll show you a short video.
The only tool you'll need is either an 8-mm wrench or an 8-mm socket with ratchet. Looking at the back seat, pull nice and firm on it. Here's the battery right here. 8-mm socket and ratchet. Just a few sparks basically from the courtesy lights. We're going to reconnect, take your ... you are going to get some sparking in here a little bit. It's nothing to be concerned about. It's not going to hurt you. Lift up your seat belts, put your seat back into place.

Andy diagnoses a top end clicking ticking noise in our Chevy Avalanche! Andy locates the clicking noise to the top driver side of the 5.3L V8 engine, and discovers an intermittent misfire in cylinder 1. After removing the valve cover, he finds a very loose rocker, the source of our noise. He determines the rocker is loose because its lifter has collapsed, meaning it's not pushing up on the rocker when activated by the camshaft. The fault is in the AFM (active fuel management) lifter.
