Don’t let the other end
of
the negative
(-)
cable touch
anything until the next step. The other end
of
the
negative
(-)
cable
doesn’t
go
to the dead battery. It
goes to a heavy unpainted metal
part
on the engine
of
the vehicle with the dead battery.

10.
Attach the cable at least
18
inches
(45
cm) away
from the dead battery,
but not near engine
parts
that move. The electrical
connection
is
just as
good there, but the
chance
of
sparks
getting
back to the battery
is
much less.
11.
Now start the vehicle with the good battery
and
run
the
engine
for
awhile.
12.
Try
to
start the vehicle with the dead battery. If it
won’t start after
a
few tries,
it
probably needs
service.
13.
Remove the cables in reverse order
to
prevent
electrical shorting. Take care that they don’t touch
each other or
any
other metal.
