How do you jumb start a car?

Answer 1

I think you mean jump start, but here is how: You need 1 car that works and jumper cables (can be found at local auto parts store) Open both hoods and locate the batteries on both cars and on each battery there is a positive terminal and a negative terminal Turn on the car that starts and position it so the battery is close to the battery of the car that needs the "jump" On the battery there are 2 terminals (where the electric comes from). The positive has a + and the negative has a -, connect the red clamp (on jumper cable) to the + and the black clamp to the - (some cars have a red plastic cover you must remove on the positive (+) terminal) Whatever you do DO NOT allow the other ends of the cables to toutch, a dangerous situation and/or damage to car may result Now connect the red clamp on the other end to the positive+ terminal and the black clamp to the negative - terminal. POSITIVE CONNECTS TO POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE CONNECTS TO NEGATIVE Try starting car. Tip: if car still does not have enough power to start you can try cleaning the battery post and/or digging the jumper cable clamps into them for a better connection
