Are the batteries stock equipement? If so, then no big deal. Its just time to repalce them. Very simple job and the batteris are almost 6 years old so id say thever help up good.

I also would double check the cables just to ensure they have not rubbed through the insulation anywhere and have grounded out. The battery is probably hot from tring to crank over but it may be hot due to shorting too. Just a few extra minutes to be on the safe side too.
