negative (

the good battery’s
negative (

the negative (

unpainted metal part on the engine of the vehicle
with the dead battery. Don’t allow the red and black
handles in the jumper cable to touch each other.
If you have the 4.0L V8
engine, your vehicle has
a remote negative terminal,
marked “GND”, located
near the power steering
fluid reservoir. Attach
the cable to the remote
negative terminal provided.
See “Engine Compartment Overview” in the Index
for more information on location.
11. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine for a while.
12. Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
If it won’t start after a few tries, it probably
needs service.
