7. Don't let the other end touch metal. Connect it to the positive(+) terminal of the good battery. Usea remote positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one. 8. Now connect the black negative (-) cable to the good battery's negative (-) terminal. Don't let the other end touch anything until the next step. 9. The other end of the negative cable doesn't go to the dead battery.It goes to a heavy, unpainted metal part on the engine of the vehicle with the dead battery. Attach thecable at least 18 inches (45cm) away from the dead battery, but not near engine parts that move. The electrical connection isjust as good there, but the chance of sparks getting backto the battery is much less. 10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run the engine for a while. 11. Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery. If it won't start after a few tries, it probably needs service. 145 ...

7.
Don’t let the
other
end
touch
metal.
Connect it to
the
positive
(+)
terminal
of
the good
battery.
Use a remote
positive
(+)
terminal if
the vehicle
has
one.
8.
Now connect the
black
negative
(-)
cable to the
good
battery’s
negative
(-)
terminal.
Don’t
let
the
other
end
touch
anything
until
the
next
step.
9.
The other
end of the negative cable
doesn’t go to
the
dead
battery. It goes
to
a heavy,
unpainted
metal
part
on
the
engine of the vehicle with
the
dead
battery.
Attach
the cable at least
18
inches
(45
cm)
away from the
dead
battery,
but
not
near
engine
parts that
move. The electrical
connection
is just as good there, but
the
chance of sparks
getting
back to
the
battery
is
much
less.
10.
Now start the
vehicle
with
the
good
battery
and
run
the engine for
a
while.
11.
Try to start
the
vehicle
with the dead
battery. If it
won’t start after a few
tries, it
probably
needs service.
