That depends upon what the starter problem is. If the battery is exhausted, you can use another vehicle's battery, with jumper cables.

What happens if your alternator doesn't work?
It will seem like it is your battery. It may start at first but eventually will die and you will attempt to use jumper cables to restart it but as soon as you disconnect the cables it will die again. The only fix is to replace the alternator , when i replaced the one in my truck i did it myself for about 140.00 If this helped please recommend :>)

Proper hook up of jumper cables to a semi truck?
Depends on what year it's from. On an older truck, hook the positive to a positive battery post, hook the ground to a bolt which goes through the chassis. On a newer truck, which is apt to having chassis-mounted electronics, put the ground to the negative battery terminal.

What gauge of jumper cables should be used for vans?
It doesn't matter whether you're jump starting a Van, pickup truck or an economy car, always use cables with the largest possible COPPER wire, 00 gauge or larger. Smaller cables will often provide enough of a boost to help a battery that's just a little low, but the larger cables work best for the more severe situations.
