[@Jeff-cn9up]

It was the determining factor for me. I don't need an eight minute video for a one minute procedure.

[@Ultimatestrife]

Yeah like wtf I'm trying to jumpstart a car not listen to someone's life story

[@Corvus__]

Short, straight to the point and everything that's necessary is there. More tutorial videos need to be EXACTLY like this!

[@superchili9057]

Not like others talking too much about their lives or being unprofessional.

[@RichardT1000]

Thanks this was great info💪🏾

[@pikachumasta1516]

Had to go through an ad that was longer than the video

[@halvorson566]

Well this is also an “older” video. These days, they make longer videos since that gets them more attention some how; going into depth about pointless shit. This was good video to send to my buddy who needed a jump but was to far for me to get to him

[@D2_Papaya]

its good he emphasised never letting the cables touch, that stuff can be really dangerous.

[@shayshaymann113]

I’d like to say thank you for us girlies who don’t have any help from others or a significant other to help! I’m a widow and never needed to worry about jumping batteries or changing tires before, my late husband did it all. I’m not ashamed to do it myself so videos like this really does help me A LOT! Thank you 🙏

I really appreciate you for the no condescension explanation. I've jumped a car a million times and one in my life, but I get massive anxiety every time. This was encouraging, simple, and accessible. It went swimmingly, we found a different issue, but at least now we know what the actual problem is now that the car is running. Thanks!!

We have everything to get the battery jumped except for the measuring tape. We’re waiting for my cousin to get off work and bring us one.

[@BuenoMcgurski]

Remember the time John Conor jumped on the 1-800-terminator and jammed a screwdriver in his brain and started to eat his RAM so that he could be more intelligent, but actually he just ate arnold schwarzeNATOR’s cooling fan and thermal paste, so terminator had to jump on t-John-Conors back and they ran to the arcade to hack into one of the pinball machines to acquire the necessary components, and just as they were about to, none other than that big silly WOLFIE comes and tackles both of them to the ground and eats the RAM out of Maria Shriver’s husbands’ head and becomes super intelligent and tells them both that they have to go kill that black guy who invented Skyrim, or at least make him do a kamikaze-chest-bomb-sit-down in a building full of policemen while holding the detonator and then told him to die right before he blows everybody up. I remember saying “wow” when I first saw that and someone in the theatre told me I had to leave because I was sitting on the floor blocking the fire exit with tickets to the wrong movie (Glengarry Glen Ross).

This is how I did always: Positive to positive. Negative to Negative. And it works within seconds! I never attached the Negative to a metal?😮😮😮

[@steventan6381]

I've been doing the same for years. I also never turn off the donor car's engine. I learned it from a mechanic.

Yea this is what worked for me, triee for like 10 minutes with the method in this video to no avail.

[@Sleepy_Joe]

Positive red to dead car positive red. Positive red to working car positive red. Black negative to running car negative black. Black negative to dead car frame over a foot away from battery to ground. Start running car. Wait 1-2 minutes. Try starting dead car. Disconnect cables in reverse order.

[@andysmith5328]

Why can’t you put pos to pos and neg to neg

[@ladyeagle0507]

Just watched the video and have the same question

[@dragonwings123456789]

​@@andysmith5328 It can occasionally cause problems so its considered safer practice to ground black wire on the non running vehicle

[@wife_beater_]

​@@andysmith5328 did it once, it works but I don't think it's safe. I remember sparks and light when connecting them, but the car started straight away as if it was never dead

[@bonsummers2657]

Dead Red to Donor Red, Donor Black (which can be on the battery or engine block bare metal) to Dead Black engine block bare metal. Wait 30 seconds both vehicles off. Then 2 minutes with Donor vehicle on, then turn on Dead vehicle, run for five minutes, both cars on. Then shut off donor vehicle, keep dead vehicle running. Take off cables in reverse order. Drive dead vehicle for at least 15 minutes to charge up battery before turning car off. The Black cable doesn’t have to be attached to either the dead or donor battery, just engine block metal is sufficient.

[@kaedre1211]

When my daughter turned 16 and got her drivers license, I showed her how to jump a car, how to change a flat tire & how to properly put air in it & many other things. Her response was, "thanks Dad, but if I'm ever in that situation & I'm stuck on the road & I do things myself, you're gonna be mad that I didn't call you for help". I had to think for a minute bc she's right, but I told her that I'm not always gonna be here for u & it's good that u know how to do things for yourself. LOL . . .

[@joybradford8206]

Thank you so much for this video. I never had to jump a car before today. I'm grateful for your video. It really helped me and my mom this morning. ☺👍

I didn't have a spot of un-painted exposed metal. I used the negative terminal of the battery and that worked.

[@catherinedrouin6204]

I was looking for this comment. Because I had always seen it done by connecting positive to positive, and then negative to negative. I was wondering if I've been seeing it done wrong and how the hell it's been working that way. I guess it works both ways?

[@senseisaitama8684]

​@@uglow_uknowThanks for the explanation, I learned negative to negative and was confused when it was shown as negative to grounded on dead car. It only worked for me when I did negative to negative for some reason.

[@senseisaitama8684]

[@bidencrimefamilymottof-cky953]

Some things should be learned/practiced before you need them. If you haven’t yet, changing a flat tire before you need to know how to change a flat tire is well worth 30 minutes of time actually performing the steps and change the tire. Like where the jack and spare tire are located in your vehicle, how to safely operate it, correct order of steps, etc. Seriously will be well worth doing a practice run.

[@HankTitlow]

I have never shut the engine of the running vehicle off. Also, I have never had any trouble when connecting to the negative battery terminal of the non-running car. I'm fearful that I might short out a nearby part that sends electricity to a vital engine part. But, I get you have to instruct people on the absolute safest method.

[@nicolebeck5277]

Wish I'd seen this before I tried because my cables got messed up bc I didn't just connect it to the negative side of the non -running car

[@slamfire6005]

Yea I just connect to the negative and never ground it on metal.

[@bidencrimefamilymottof-cky953]

If the battery is drained significantly, attaching the negative cable to the negative battery post tends to spark when initially connected. It doesn’t when connected to the car [bare metal framework]. Of course you never connect directly to electrical components regardless.

[@ccsafterdark]

Jump started a car for the first time today. Thanks for that, will subscribe.

[@Gillysaurxx]

I never knew your supposed to connect it to bare metal and not the battery. Interesting

[@ericb2k12]

I've never had a problem connecting it to the negative terminal on both cars ever

[@malcolmh5736]

I think you’re supposed to turn the donor car off when trying to start the dead one? so they’re not running at the same time, alternator against alternator.. ?

[@bidencrimefamilymottof-cky953]

No. You could drain the donor’s battery. You want the alternator providing a constant charge to the donor. Just disconnect after the car starts.

[@marcowho]

[@Moevission]

The negative on a bracket or bolt? Not on the negative side of the dead battery? How does that work? Or is it cause the positive is the charge needed mainly?

make sure engine is off is not enough , must be ignition off too , turn key all the way to that side and remove it . or else computer damage from spark on pole clamp expensive is possible . open way from spark to computer if ignition is on.

Connect Dead battery positive terminal -> connect functional battery positive terminal -> working battery negative (black) terminal-> don’t connect negative to dead battery-> start the engine of good battery-> once the dead car running-> disconnect reverse order which is : Dead battery negative-> working batteries negative-> working battery positive-> dead battery positive???

Thankfully I’ve never needed to jump my car, but my coworker needed a jump, so I helped him with my car.

[@hindude4572]

Some questions for anyone that can help! 1. Why don’t you connect both negatives to the batteries? 2. Is there any chance you can get shocked since the second negative is connected to the bolt? 3. So you do + dead battery, + good, - good, then bolt on dead car? Then the exact reverse to remove?

[@therealnikos2033]

Its 2 am and my buddy jus called me sayin his car died 😂

[@closewithjoy]

Just did this for the first time thanks to this video!

[@Silvamoon]

I had a buddy of mine need a jumpstart. I followed these steps but it didn’t work. Then a passing cop turned up and moved the cables around and it worked. They moved the positive cable on the good car to another bolt and the negative cable on the bad car to a more flat surface. I knew all this but I really suck at jobs with my hands so it didn’t go so well for me.

[@mancdown]

I've heard you can damage a car by connecting directly from battery to battery. Is this true or just an urban myth as I know lots of people that do that without amy problems.

[@MrPancake777]

Most of the time it won’t cause any problem or in some cases an explosion, but there is still a VERY small chance that it cold happen. Most of the videos I’ve seen on KZbin and mechanics I’ve spoken to in real like agree that why risk the chance? Best and safest way is to not connect it to the negative terminal on the dead battery.

If you attach the negative clamp to the battery it could cause damage but probably wont just safe precaution. Jump starting someone's car takes a lot of juice but it's only once so it's no biggie for ur car. Just dont do it often hopefully u dont have to.
