Problems on the Road
Find the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals on each battery.
5. Check that the jumper cables don’t
have loose
or missing 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.
Don’t connect
(+) to (-) or you’ll get a
short that would damage the battery
and maybe other parts, too.
