How to Start Your Car with a Booster

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Battery

Video tutorial

If your car battery is flat and won't start, a portable booster (jump starter) is the quickest solution. Connect the red cable to the positive terminal of the battery and the black cable to the negative terminal (or to a metal ground on the chassis).

Turn on the booster and wait a few seconds. Try to start the engine.

If it starts, leave the engine running for a few minutes to recharge the battery. Then disconnect the black cable and finally the red one. The booster is a very handy device, especially if the battery shows no signs of failure until the moment it dies.

The one shown in the video is a Bitzwolf BW-JAI, which can be found on eBay with code 377169987972 for £85.99 with free delivery. Remember that if the battery is very old (over 5 years), it may need replacing.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
