Jump starting m1009

[a68cudas]

Was wondering if you can use two seperate jump boxes to jump start one of these. Put one on one battery and other on the second battery to turn one of these over?

IF I'm not mistaken I think that will work - no problem!

 

[jwaller]

yup, it will work. make sure both alt's are charging.

thanks for the replys

Normally if you kill the battery from leaving the lights on or radio or anything 12v the front battery is dead the rear is ready to go. Therefore you just need to jump the front one and it will start.

if they are both dead i suggest charging them both seperate then trying to start it

I have good luck boosting both batteries individually at the same time.

The batteries were not totally dead the had some juice but not enough to crank her over. I hooked up both jump boxes one on each battery and cycled the glow plugs and she fired right up. Let her run and recharged no problems

i had to jump mine this past weekend before i broke down and replaced the 8yr old batteries. but a jump box and a truck worked fine for me

Yea you can screw around all day trying to jump that front batt but I have got them started jumping the rear batt, but if you just want to get it started jump them both!

I've done that same thing. I put a jump box on the rear battery and and a truck on the front battery and it worked. My batteries were pretty dead when I did it.

here is a question. assuming you don't have a Nato slave plug and you wanted to jump a deuce with a cucv
where would you hook the jumper cables up at? Not on the deuce but on the cucv.

Thanks
