missing insulation. If they do, you could get a shock.
The vehicles could be damaged too.
Before you connect the cables, here are some basic
things you should know. Positive (+) will go to
positive (+) and negative (
-) will go to a heavy,
unpainted metal engine part. Don’t connect
positive (+) to negative (
-) or you’ll get a short that
would damage the battery and maybe other parts too.
6. Connect the red
positive (+) cable to the
positive (+) terminal
of the vehicle with the
dead battery.
7. Don’t let the other end
touch metal. Connect
it to the positive (+)
terminal of the
good battery.
8. Now connect the
black negative (
-)
cable to the
good battery’s
negative (
-)
terminal.
