Comments about Autocraft 12' Jumper Cable and Bag:
This is one of those items that you don't appreciate until your battery gets weak. Even with two cars, you can't start the failed one without good jumper cables, and these even came in a nice bag.

Comments about Autocraft 12' Jumper Cable and Bag:
Used to charge a battery and the clamps were extremely flimsy. It was so bad I thought they were going to break. The only reason I gave it a 2 was b/c it did charge my battery.

Q:
How do I hook the cables up from one car to the other car?1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
With reference to this Autocraft Jumper Cable and Bag, 12' - part# AC124/7810126, like your batteries, your jumper cables will probably have red and black cables and will have heavy duty clamps to connect to the battery terminals. You must make sure that the red and black ends of your jumper cables never touch each other once they are connected to the batteries; permitting them to do so can result in serious arcing and/or damage to one or both cars. Connect one red clamp to the positive (+) terminal of the dead battery. Connect the other red clamp to the positive (+) terminal of the good battery. Connect one black clamp to the negative (-) terminal of the good battery.Connect the other black clamp to a piece of grounded metal on the dead car, preferably the bolt where the thick negative cable from the battery connects to the chassis. If this is not practical, look for shiny metal (not painted or oily) that is attached to the engine. Usually a nut, bolt or other protruding shiny metal will work. You may see a small spark when you connect to a good ground. As a last resort, you may connect to the negative (-) post of the dead battery, but this risks igniting hydrogen gas coming off the battery. Make sure none of the cables are dangling into the engine compartment, where they could be exposed to moving parts. For any further assistance, please visit your nearest Advance Auto store or call us directly at 1-877-ADVANCE (238-2623) and one of our representatives there would be more than happy to assist you.Q:
