you'll need extra battery. take one battery at a time. hook one side to hot on a good battery. take other end and another battery hold it on hot, and then take a long screw driver and touch neg. and poss. if cable is good it will spark
No, that cable is connected to ground, so it cannot short out.
The negative battery cable will short out if it is loose or corroded. Check both ends of the battery cable for corrosion. Make sure both ends are tight.
yes the battery can short out the starter.more likely to short the solenoid first but check both
The vehicle will not crank.
To change the positive battery cable on a 2001 Toyota Sequoia, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off and the keys are removed. Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent any short circuits. Then, remove the bolt securing the positive battery cable to the battery terminal using a wrench, and lift the cable off. Finally, attach the new positive battery cable by securing it to the battery terminal with the bolt, and reconnect the negative terminal.
If a jump start will not start it then it is not the battery. You either have a short in the battery cable connection to the battery or the engine/starter or you have a bad starter. Test for a short in battery, battery Cables or connection. Trace where the positive battery cable connects to usually an electrical box on the inside of the engine compartment and put the positive jumper cable there while putting the negative jumper cable on a metal part of the engine (you are by-passing the battery and the battery cables completely). If it does not start now then you have a bad starter.
It should be attached to the short positive battery cable.
When connecting battery cables, always connect the positive cable first, which is typically red. Attach it to the positive terminal of the battery, then connect the negative cable, usually black, to the negative terminal. This order helps prevent sparks and reduces the risk of short-circuiting. When disconnecting, reverse the order: remove the negative cable first, then the positive.
Remove - battery cable Remove + battery cable from battery and starter solenoid Route new cable following original routing Connect to starter solenoid Connect to + battery terminal Connect - battery cable
There is no way that the positive battery terminal was ever connected to the chassis. This would be a dead short and would fry the battery. Negative to chassis is correct, but positive to chassis, no way. That positive cable goes somewhere else.
On a 2002 Saturn SL1, the positive battery cable runs from the positive terminal of the battery to the starter motor, where it connects to the solenoid. It also branches off to power the fuse box and various electrical components in the engine compartment. Ensure to handle the cable carefully to avoid any short circuits or damage.
buy the proper battery and the cable will fit, or replace the cable with on that will
