2003 GMC YUKON DENALI brake light

Notice: If the other system isn’t a 12-volt system
with a negative ground, both vehicles can be
damaged.
2.
Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables
can reach, but be sure the vehicles 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.
To avoid the possibility of the vehicles rolling, set
the parking brake firmly on both vehicles involved in
the jump start procedure. Put an automatic
transmission in PARK (P) or a manual transmission
in NEUTRAL before setting the parking brake.
Notice: If you leave your radio on, it could be badly
damaged. The repairs wouldn’t be covered by
your warranty.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug
unnecessary accessories plugged into the cigarette
lighter or accessory power outlets. Turn
off the
radio and all lamps that aren’t needed. This
will avoid sparks and help save both batteries.
And it could save your radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+) and
negative
(-) terminal locations of the other vehicle.
Your vehicle has a remote positive
(+) jump
starting terminal and a remote negative
(-) jump
starting terminal.
You should always use these
remote terminals instead
of the terminals on the
battery.
The remote positive
(+)
terminal is located under a red plastic cover near
the engine accessory drive
bracket.
To access the
remote positive
(+)
terminal, open the red
plastic cover.
