Picture this: you're ready to head out on a drive through Bellingham, WA, but your car won't start. Chances are, you're dealing with a dead battery. Don't panic! With a set of jumper cables and another vehicle, you can jump-start your car and be back on the road in no time.
First, make sure you have jumper cables in your vehicle. Once you've located another vehicle with a working battery, park it close to your car, but make sure the batteries aren't touching. Turn off both vehicles and connect the red cable to the positive terminals on each battery. Then, connect the black cable to the negative terminal of the working battery and to an unpainted metal surface in your engine compartment.
Start the working vehicle and let it run for a few minutes before attempting to start your car. If your vehicle starts successfully, let it run for at least 15 minutes to help recharge the battery. If you frequently need to jump-start your car, it's a good idea to have your vehicle's electrical system inspected by professionals. The team at MB Motors in Bellingham is here to help. Schedule your service today to ensure your vehicle stays in top shape.
