Q: What do I need to use jump leads?
A: To use jump leads, you will need another vehicle, with a working battery, some jump leads, and basic safety gear such as eye protection, rubber gloves, and carbon monoxide protection.
Q: What are some safety precautions to take when using vehicle jump leads?
A: Take basic safety precautions to avoid electric shock and arcing from metal parts. Keep the jumper cables away from moving engine parts, exhaust, and other hot metal parts. Make sure both batteries have the same voltage and that the jump leads are connected correctly. Always wear eye protection and rubber gloves.
Q: How do I connect vehicle jump leads?
A: Begin by connecting the positive (+) lead to the positive (+) post on the dead battery. Next, connect the negative (-) lead to the negative (-) post on the good battery. Place the remaining positive (+) lead onto the positive (+) post of the good battery, and the remaining negative (-) lead onto a metal part on the engine of the dead battery. Start the car with the good battery and let it run for a few minutes before trying to start the car with the dead battery.
