Help... new 12volt, now car won't start

  1. Maybe, not normal. Check that 12V bat out good. The fact that it would not jump start right away shows that the 12V is in bad shape. At the very least let car stay in ready and charge the 12V itself for at least 8 hours!

    Wish this kind of reverse jump start will not happen again. As someone said,just a left on light will end up in a disaster(toasting the expensive converter).
    All must pay attention to do it or to be done by other. Take care.
    Best wishes.
