Real-World Scenario

After a jump start, the engine died again immediately? This usually means the alternator isn't charging — the jump got the engine running, but it can't sustain itself. We test your charging system on the spot and can often diagnose whether it's the alternator, a wiring fault, or just a failed battery.

What NOT to Do

Never jump-start a vehicle using household mains electricity via an improvised setup — it's potentially lethal. Our professional jump packs are safe and effective.
