10-100 Vehicle Care
2. Get the vehicles close enoughso the jumper cables can reach,
but be sure the vehicles are not
touching each other. If they are,
it could cause a ground
connection you do not want. You
would not 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 P (Park) or a
manual transmission in Neutral
before setting the parking brake.
Notice: If any accessories are left
on or plugged in during the jump
starting procedure, they could be
damaged. The repairs would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Whenever possible,
turn off or unplug all accessories
on either vehicle when jump
starting the vehicle. 3. Turn off the ignition on both
vehicles. Unplug unnecessary
accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory
power outlets. Turn off the radio
and all lamps that are not
needed. This will avoid sparks
and help save both batteries.
And it could save the radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+) and negative (−)
terminal locations or the remote
positive (+) and remote
negative (−) terminals of the
other vehicle. Then locate the
remote positive (+) location on
your vehicle. See Engine
Compartment Overview on
page 10‑5 for locations of the
terminals.
Your vehicle has a remote
negative (−) ground location, as
shown in the illustration. It is on
the left side of the engine
compartment. See Engine
Compartment Overview on
page 10‑5. 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
