Ian Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 As above, battery is completley dead, not used in 6 weeks Quote
marzman Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Yep, no problem. Did mine from a Rav 4, and i've jump started a few cars from mine too. Quote
sunset350z Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 If you want i could always pop up with my jump leads Ian:) Quote
Ian Posted January 24, 2009 Author Posted January 24, 2009 If you want i could always pop up with my jump leads Ian:) thanks for the offer Battery has been on charge for the last 5 hours & the car now starts Hopefully it will still work in the morning or I'll have to get a new battery tomorrow Quote
IanS16 Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 I may be wrong but i'm sure I read somewhere that someone blew their ECU doing this? May be wrong but just thought i'd mention it. Quote
Ebized Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 I may be wrong but i'm sure I read somewhere that someone blew their ECU doing this? May be wrong but just thought i'd mention it. No Ian you are wrong - the owner who had the ECU problem was being wrongly accused by the garage - the handbook sets out the usual procedure for jump starting (for those who may not know how to) Quote
