How to Start a Car with a Dead Battery?

[LaEleanor]

Methods to start a car with a completely dead battery: 1. Push-start Method: First, turn the key to the ignition position, depress the clutch, release the handbrake, and set the gear to 1st or 2nd. Keep the clutch depressed and start pushing the car. When the speed reaches about 5 km/h, slowly release the clutch while pressing the accelerator to start the engine. 2. Jump-start Method: (1) Open the hoods of both cars. Connect the negative terminal of the jumper cable to the dead battery's negative terminal and the other end to the donor car's negative terminal. (2) Similarly, connect the positive terminal of the jumper cable to the dead battery's positive terminal and the other end to the donor car's positive terminal. (3) Have the donor car start its engine and rev the engine slightly, then attempt to start the dead car. 3. Towing-start Method: First, secure a tow rope and firmly tie the front and rear of both cars together. Begin towing slowly, ensuring both vehicles maintain a safe speed while paying attention to driving safety during the process.
