as soon as I change oil really just confused about starting it it did hold charge

The oil change will not help your charging problem. If you have a multi meter you can check the charging voltage and you can look for a parasitic battery drain.

No his engine light is on as well, but I don’t know if I have that I have all my dads tools since he past I’ll leaked pic of what I think your talking about

Why? You cannot replace the battery terminal but you can replace the cable end.

If the cable end is loose or damaged I would replace it. You can buy an inexpensive multi meter for under $20 which is a good investment for the doityourselfer. Good luck!

Have the trouble codes read and post them here and I will try to help. Your local auto parts store will probably do it gratis.
