Attach the cable at least
18 inches
(45
cm) away
from the dead battery,
but not near engine
parts that move. The

is

Now start the vehicle with the good battery and
run
the engine for a while.
Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
If
it
won’t
start
after a few
tries,
it probably
needs service.
Remove the cables in reverse order to prevent
electrical shorting.
Take
care that they don’t touch
each other or any other metal.
