7. Do not let the other end

touch metal. Connect it
to the positive (+)
terminal location of the
vehicle with the good
battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if
the vehicle has one.

8. Now connect the black

negative (

) cable to

the negative (

)

terminal location of
the vehicle with the
good battery. Use a
remote negative (

)

terminal if the vehicle
has one.

Do not let the other end of the cable touch anything
until the next step. The other end of the negative (

)

cable does not go to the dead battery. It goes to
a heavy, unpainted metal engine part or to a remote
negative (

) terminal on the vehicle with the dead

battery.

9. Connect the other end

of the negative (

) cable

to the negative (

)

terminal location on the
vehicle with the dead
battery. Your vehicle
has a remote
negative (

) terminal

marked GND (

).

10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run

the engine for a while.

11. Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery. If it

will not start after a few tries, it probably needs
service.
