Gotta let the kid figure this 1 out. He was at a party, using his car for tunes and ran his battery down. So, he came home and took the Optiima out of my car (No, he didn't ask). He took it down to the beach, hooked it up backwards in the dark. As soon as he figured it out he reversed the leads and drove it the next day. I got my battery back with 6V. Fortunately, it took a charge.
It looks like he's got a project for when schools out. And, he gonna be working a little more. Dave |
