How Do You Charge A Car Battery With An Electric Charger?
The battery in your car is made to provide power, and be recharged over and over again. And then one day you climb in behind the wheel, insert the key and hear a whirring noise. The car battery is dead. But don’t worry. All you need are a few common household items and the information in this article, and you’ll be back on the road in no time. Step 1 Wearing your safety goggles, check the condition of the car battery. Make sure the casing isn’t cracked or otherwise damaged. Damaged batteries cannot be charged. They need to be replaced. Step 2 Use a wrench to remove the negative (-) battery cable from the terminal first. Remove the positive (+) cable last. Inspect the battery terminals and cable clamps for corrosion; clean if necessary with a wire brush. Check the water level in a lead-acid battery. Fill it with distilled water if need be, but do not overfill. Step 3 Leave the electric battery charger “off.” Connect the positive (+) cable of the charger to the positive battery terminal.
