Can A Car Battery Be So Dead It Won’t Jump Start?
There could be many reasons why vehicle doesn’t start, but if the only problem is a dead battery, a strong battery jump starter with enough cranking amps will boost even completely flat battery or a battery containing a bad cell. Some car models doesn’t idle well if the battery is “shot”, but they definitely will be able to start with a good jump. Make sure you have good jumper leads, you are connecting clamps to a clean metal surface and your power supply ( another car or a jump pack ) can produce enough cracking power needed for your vehicle.
