WARNING: If your vehicle has an electronic ignition system or is an alternatively fueled vehicle, the use of jumper cables may damage it. If you are note sure, leave it to Roadside Solutions to help you with your vehicle.
Don't need our help? No problem. Here's how to jump start your vehicle:
- Take out your jumper cables.
- Place both vehicles in Park or Neutral and shut off the ignition in both cars.
- Attach one of the red clips to the positive terminal of your battery.
- Attach the other red clip to the positive terminal of the other car.
- Attach one of the black clips to the negative terminal on the other battery.
- Attach the last black clip to an unpainted metal surface on your car that isn’t near the battery.
- Start the working vehicle and let the engine run for a few minutes.
- Try to start your vehicle.
If the jump works and your car starts, don’t shut off your engine! Drive around for at least 15 minutes to recharge your battery. If the car won’t start the next time you use it, the battery isn’t holding a charge and needs to be replaced.
If this doesn't work, then give us a call or book an appointment now.
