What to Do When an Automatic Transmission Car Fails to Start Due to Dead Battery?

[ClaireDella]

To solve the issue of an automatic transmission car failing to start due to a dead battery, you can use an external power source to jump-start the car. The method for jump-starting using an external power source is as follows: 1. Connect the positive terminal of the dead battery to the positive terminal of the rescue vehicle's battery; 2. Connect the negative terminal of the rescue vehicle's battery to a grounding point on the body of the dead vehicle; 3. After starting the car, remove the jumper cables in the order of positive first, then negative. An automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the control system of the automatic transmission selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load during driving, replacing the driver's subjective judgment of timing and gear-shifting operation. Most automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as: P, R, N, D, S, L.
