To Jump Start Your Vehicle
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt battery with a negative
ground system.
I NOTICE:
If the other system isn’t a 12-volt system with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be damaged.
If you have a diesel engine vehicle with two batteries (or more), you
should know before
you begin that, especially in cold weather, you may
not be able to get enough power from
a single battery in another
vehicle to start your diesel engine.
If your vehicle
has more than one battery, use the battery that’s on the
passenger side
of the vehicle - this will reduce electrical resistance.
sure the vehicle’s aren’t touching each other.
If they are, it could cause
a ground connection you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to start your
vehicle, and the bad grounding could damage
the electrical systems.
You could be injured
if the vehicles roll. Set the parking brake firmly
on each vehicle. Put an automatic transmission
in “P” (Park) or a
manual transmission in “N” (Neutral). If you have a four-wheel-drive
vehicle, be sure
the transfer case is not in “N” (Neutral).
2. Get the vehicles
close enough
so the jumper cables can reach, but be
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Turn off all lights that aren’t
needed, and radios. This will avoid sparks and help save both batteries.
And it could save
your radio!
NOTICE:
If you leave your radio on, it could be badly damaged. The
repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
4. Open the hoods and locate the batteries. Find the positive (+) and
negative
(-) terminals on each battery.

Trailer Wiring Harness
The optional seven-wire trailer wiring harness is protected by an in-line
fuse
in the battery feed wire. This fuse is near the junction block. See
“Trailer Wiring Harness”
in the Index for more information.
Fuse Block
The fuse block is
behind an access door
at the bottom of the
instrument panel,
next
to the parking brake
release lever.
To remove fuses if you don’t have one, hold the end of the fuse between
your thumb and index finger and pull straight out.
Be, sure to use the correct fuse.
If you ever have a problem on the road and
don’t have a spare fuse, you can “borrow” one of the correct value. Just pick
some feature
of your vehicle that you can get along without-like the radio
or cigarette lighter--and use
its fuse, if it is of the value you need. Replace
it as soon as you can. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers“ in the Index for
more information.
