Dead car battery? Call jump start services.

A car battery is pretty long-lasting, but as your car gets older, the battery may start to die unexpectedly. And if you are a used car owner, you may begin to experience car battery problems sooner. When your car battery gets old, you might start having trouble with your car. So, if your vehicle fails to start and you suspect it’s due to the dead car battery, you would need a jump start service in Staten Island to get back on the road. 

If you ever find yourself in such a situation, make sure you have the number of a heavy-duty towing company in Queens, NY, handy so you can get immediate roadside assistance. However, if you have the right tools and know-how to jump-start your car, you might be able to solve the problem by yourself.

Following are the steps to jump-start a car:

• First, you would need a functioning car to help you jump-start your car’s battery. If you see any vehicles passing by, you may ask them for help. However, if there are no cars nearby, you can call a friend who has a car and might be nearby to assist you with a jump start.
• Next, you would need a pair of jumper cables. These are pretty cheap and can be easily stored in your car’s trunk. You would need to open the hood of both cars and attach the jumper cables to the battery terminals. Make sure both cars are turned off before attaching the cables.
• Make sure to attach each cable correctly with the (+) and (-) signs on each terminal.
• Next, you should start the working car and let the dead battery get charged for 1-2 minutes before attempting to start the dead car. 
• After 1-2 minutes of charging, when you attempt to start your car, it should startup easily. In case it doesn’t start, let it charge for a few more minutes and try to start it again.
• When the car starts, carefully disconnect the jumper cables and take a short drive to let the battery build up a charge.

In case you ever get stranded on the road with no jumper cables or cars passing by and unable to reach any friends nearby, it is best to contact roadside assistance and towing company for quick jump start services in Queens, NY.
