unnecessary accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory power outlet.

4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+)
and negative () terminal locations on each
vehicle.
You will not need to access your battery for

starting terminal for that purpose.
The remote positive (+)
terminal is located
under the engine
compartment fuse block
cover, and is marked
with a plus (+) symbol
on the cover. To access
the terminal, remove
the fuse block cover.
The remote negative ()
terminal is located in the
front of the engine
compartment, near the
engine oil dipstick.
See Engine Compartment Overview on
page 342 for more information on the location
of the remote positive (+) terminal and the
engine oil dipstick.
