What to Do When the Car Has No Electricity at All?
2 Answers
If the car battery has no electricity at all, do not attempt to start the engine repeatedly, as this will deplete the remaining power of the already low battery. Once the battery is dead, you can use a jump start to get the car running. Here are other methods to deal with a dead car battery: 1. Contact a rescue vehicle: In an emergency, the most reliable method is to contact a rescue vehicle promptly. To avoid being unable to charge when the battery is dead, car owners should keep a set of jumper cables in the car. The main purpose of the jumper cables is to connect to the rescue vehicle. Once connected, start the rescue vehicle’s engine and increase its RPM to charge the dead car. 2. Jump start on your own: Alternatively, you can choose to jump start the car yourself. This method requires borrowing another car with a fully charged battery. Open the hoods of both cars, connect the positive and negative terminals of the dead battery to the corresponding terminals of the other car, and then start the other car’s engine. This will allow your car to start.
My car had completely run out of power, and I couldn't start it in the morning when I was in a hurry to go out. I felt anxious but managed to calm down. I asked my neighbor to bring his car over to jump-start mine. He connected the red clip to the positive terminal and the black clip to the negative terminal. After starting the engine, my car finally came back to life. Afterwards, I hurried to the repair shop and found out the battery was old and needed replacement. A reminder to everyone: keep a jumper cable in your car just in case. Usually, avoid leaving parking lights on for too long and start the engine more often to charge the battery, which can extend its lifespan by several years. If you encounter such a situation, don't panic—contact friends or family or call roadside assistance. Safety comes first.
