negative (−) terminal (2) on the
dead battery.
11. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run the
engine for a while.
12. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery. If it will not
start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.
Caution
If the jumper cables are
connected or removed in the
wrong order, electrical shorting
may occur and damage the
vehicle. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always connect and remove the
jumper cables in the correct order,
making sure that the cables do
not touch each other or other
metal. Jumper Cable Removal
Reverse the sequence exactly when
removing the jumper cables.
After starting the disabled vehicle
and removing the jumper cables,
allow it to idle for several minutes.
The power windows may need to be
initialized. See
“Window Indexing”
under Power Windows 045.
Towing the Vehicle
Caution
Incorrectly towing a disabled
vehicle may cause damage. The
damage would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Do not lash
or hook to any suspension
components —including the
control arms, stabilizer bars, and
links —during towing and
recovery of a disabled vehicle,
or when securing the vehicle to a
flatbed car carrier. For towing and
recovery of a disabled vehicle,
use the proper hooks in the
correct locations on the front and
rear sub-frames. Use the proper
nylon strap harnesses around the
tires to secure them to the flatbed
car carrier.
Have the vehicle towed on a flatbed
car carrier. A wheel lift tow truck
could damage the vehicle.
