on locations of the terminals.
Your vehicle has a remote
negative (−) ground location, as
shown in the illustration. It is
located on the left side of the
engine compartment. See
Engine Compartment Overview
on page 10‑6. You should
always use this remote ground
location, instead of the terminal
on the battery. Notice:
If you connect a negative
cable to the Engine Control
Module (ECM), ECM mounting
bracket, or any cables that attach
to the ECM bracket, you may
damage the ECM. Always attach
the negative cable to your
vehicle's remote negative ground
location, instead of the ECM, ECM
bracket, or any cables attached to
the ECM bracket.{WARNING
An electric fan can start up even
when the engine is not running
and can injure you. Keep hands,
clothing and tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
