Know How to Jumpstart the Car

There is nothing worse for a car owner than trying to turn their car on and finding that the battery is dead. At that moment the horrible imagery of tow trucks, inconvenience of figuring out how to go to and from work, then of course the dreaded car repair bill. Do not worry, don’t go to that dark place, all you have to do is find a friend and try jumping your car.

All you must do is bring out the jumper cables and make sure both vehicles are turned off. First place the red clamp on the positive terminal of the dead battery and the other red clamp on the positive terminal of the working battery.

Do the same with the black clamp, on both negative terminals of the dead battery to the working battery. Turn on the live car and wait a minute or two before you try to start the car with the dead battery.

Once the car is started, don’t turn it off again. Make sure you drive for at least 15 minutes to make sure that your car is charging the battery.

Drive your car to the 800CarGuru Service Center and get your battery checked to make sure you do not face this problem again. You can even sign up for our Customer Happiness Service Contract to make sure you never have to pay a hefty car bill again!
