What causes battery to spark and jumpers to melt?
The current passed through them was too high. Possibly they are cheap cables, (many of them on the market today.) - Cables should be at least 10 gauge wire. Mine are 6. The thicker wire, the better quality your cables are. Anything thinner than 12 gauge is dangerous,.
How do you set the timing on a 1988 fuel injected Chevy S-10 pickup with a 2.8 V-6 engine with an automatic transmission?
you have to undo a single wire plug under the carpet on the pasenger side. then the computer is in sleep mode. Set at 0 degrees, then shut off, reconnect the plug and start,,,, it will automatically adjust itself.
How do you change starter relay on 1996 Cadillac Eldorado?
On a 1996 Cadillac Deville the starter relay or starter enable relay is located under the hood on the drivers side. Remove the black plastic cover that encloses the fuses and relay center. There are several relays in there. You are looking for the relay that has a Red 10 gage wire, a Yellow 10 gage wire, a 16 gage Yellow with Black stripe, a 10 gage Purple wire. Locate this relay unplug wire and plug it into your new relay. I have been told that the relay is a dealer item. The parts stores say that it is a square gray, four prong relay but, this is not true, wrong part. If you have a volt meater test your wires, the red 10 gage wire should have 12 volts with the key on. The 10 gage Yellow wire should have 12 volts in the crank position. The 16 gage wire yellow with black is a ground in the crank position. The 10 gage purple goes to the starter if you use a jumper wire and conect the red to the purple the starter should crank. Hope this will help good luck !
What would cause jumper cable to melt when jumping battery after you stop cranking car it actually trys to crank by itself without turning key?
The starter relay or the internal starter relay solenoid contact is closed either by 12 volts still applied to the relay or starter or the contacts have welded themselves together. Welded together sounds good if the starter is shorted and that would cause the cables to overheat also.
How do you test a coil on a Mercruiser 6-cylinder?
You can perform an ohms test but the test is not always conclusive. First check your points, dwell and timing. Make sure your coil is getting a good 12+ volts. Try jumping a positive jumper wire from the battery positive to test. A bad shift interuptor switch can cause a no-spark condition as can a bad tach or shorted harness. Read more at sterndrives.com

What wire gauge used for headphones?
The wire gauge in thin headphone cables is quite small. I have read of people rewiring their headphones using 12 Gauge wire. There are commercial cables that use 11 gauge. The thicker the wire the less the resistance up to a point. Many headphones use 22 or 24 gauge and it seems to work OK.
Circular mils for 12 awg solid wire?
The cross-sectional area of a 12 AWG solid wire is approximately 6530 circular mils. Circular mils are commonly used to measure the cross-sectional area of wires and cables in electrical engineering.
How do you get power window up when switch does not work on a 2001 Monte Carlo?
Run a hot (12 Volt) wire straight to the motor with a jumper to the wire that allows up. Be careful as you can get hurt doing this.
Where do you hook up jumper cables under the hood of a Mercedes 220D?

What are the differences between the 12-2 and 12-3 electrical wiring cables?
The main difference between 12-2 and 12-3 electrical wiring cables is the number of conductors they contain. 12-2 cable has two conductors (black and white) and a ground wire, while 12-3 cable has three conductors (black, red, and white) and a ground wire. The additional conductor in 12-3 cable allows for more complex electrical circuits to be created.

open wire J
What happens wen you get eletricuted by a car battery?
You will not get electricuted by a car battery. It has only 12 volts and that will not cause you any harm. The sparks that come from connecting the battery or connnecting jumper cables are just electrical current being transferred.
