battery.

insulation. If they do, you could get a shock. The vehicles
could be damaged, too. Before you connect the cables,
here are some basic things you should know. Positive (+)
will go to positive (+) and negative (-) will go to negative (-)
or a metal engine part. Do not connect (+) to (-) or you
will get a short that would damage the battery and maybe
other parts, too.
3.
Connect the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the vehicle with the dead battery. Use a
remote positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one.
4.
Don’t let the other end touch metal. It to the positive (+)
terminal of the good battery. Connect Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one.
5.
Now connect the black negative (-) cable to the good
battery’s negative (-) terminal.
Don’t let the other end touch anything until the next step.
The other end of the negative cable goes to the dead
battery. It goes to a heavy unpainted metal part on the
engine of the vehicle with the dead battery.
6.
Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run the
engine for a while.
7.
Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
If won’t start after a few tries, it probably needs service.
8.
Remove the cables in reverse order to prevent electrical
shorting. Take care that they don’t touch other or any
other metal.
NOTE
If the other system isn’t a 12-volt system or with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be damaged.
