Video tutorial

Let's see how to connect the jump leads for emergency starting on a Fiat Ducato (applicable to many models, including those with the battery under the floor or under the seat). The video shows that on the Ducato, we should not connect directly to the battery, which is often difficult to reach, but there are dedicated connection points in the engine compartment.

The positive terminal is located in a small black box or in the fuse box of the engine compartment. In the video, they open it and inside is a terminal to which they attach the red positive lead.

For the negative terminal, there is a specific marked point, which is usually a bolt or pin attached directly to the bodywork or engine.
