How to cut car from another car?

the main / Battery

The discharged battery is delivered by car owners a lot of trouble - often there are situations when the battery sits down in the car, and it does not work out the engine from the ignition key.

In such cases, you have to cut the car from another car, drivers and other ways of running the motor are used. The reasons why the battery sat down can be as follows:

  • at night, the included dimensions or radio tape recorders were left;
  • in the frost, the battery lost the container;
  • the old battery, and requires replacement.

The most correct solution in this case is to buy a new battery, but for some reason it is not always possible to make a purchase. What else is the way out of this position?

Methods for starting the engine with a discharged battery

In order to start the engine, motorists use options:

  • recharge the battery using a special charger;
  • carry out the launch of the machine with the "Tolkach";
  • motor rolls with towing to another car;
  • use the method of caution of the car from another car.

All these methods have their advantages and cons, but not in any situation they can be used.

As a rule, the charger helps the car owners well if the battery sat down. But in this method there are drawbacks:

  • charging is long (from several hours to days), and if you need to urgently go, then this is not a way out;
  • if the battery is old, and the plates in the banks sat down, then it is no longer charging;
  • "Charger" needs to be bought.


In order to start a car from the pusher, you need a few people who could push the car from behind. Here, too, much depends on the situation:

  • there is no right number of people;
  • the car with automatic gearbox from the pusher starts at their own risk.

If the machine is included in the machine, the automatic machine is included, the reservoir method is extremely not recommended. Perhaps the motor and starts, but the risk of the automatic transmission is very large in this case.


You can start the car with towing, but here there are also your difficulties:

  • a towing cable is needed, and it is not always available;
  • for towing you need to find a driver and a car on the go;
  • it is also forbidden to tow car with an automatic transmission.


Decoration method

Surrious car from another car is easier and safer everything, here the plus is at least that you can run the engine with such a method on machines with any transmission. In order to start the motor from another machine, you will need:

  • the car itself with a good battery and the engine;
  • special wires for cigarette.

Wires must meet certain requirements, and if the conductive veins are too thin, the wires will warm up, and the strength of another battery will not be enough to start the motor. All the ends of the wires have special crocodiles terminals, with which you could connect two batteries. The contact between the conductive residential and terminal clamp must be reliable.

Rules of safe cigarette

You can "Circling" from any working vehicle, but before starting such an operation, some rules must be followed:

  • cars (one of them with a served battery, the second donor) must be installed next to each other so that the length of the cigarette wires is enough from one battery to another;
  • both motor must be muffled, and the ignition is turned off on both machines;
  • it is necessary to turn off all the electrical appliances on both cars.

Only after that you can only connect the wires between the batteries. Why is it so important to fulfill all these conditions and act only on this scheme?

If you do not comply with the elementary rules, then when connecting a donor car to a sever battery and when the ignition is turned on, the voltage drop may occur on the launched machine. As a result, electronic systems can arise, for example, an engine control unit on any car.

Another rule - can only be seeded in open space, it is impossible to start in the garage or in a different indoor in the garage.


Factory wires for chickens have a different color insulation:

  • red - for connecting to the plus terminals;
  • black - for connecting to the mass.

To see the car from another car, it is necessary to combine the plus terminals of the batteries with a red wire, the battery terminals are connected with a black cause. Moreover, first of all is connected plus, and only after that the mass is installed. Polarity here to confuse in no case, otherwise any electronic systems can be released. You can connect the mass wire and on another scheme:

  • one end to its end with the "minus" of the car donor battery;
  • the other end of the wire is fixed on any part of the body with an unscrumbed metal of the car vehicle either on the metal part of the engine itself.

You need to try to "throw" the mass as far as possible from the fuel line - if when the motor starts, the wires will suddenly appear, fire is not excluded.

  • we get a donor car engine and let him work at least 5 minutes. It is also recommended to add revs to two to three thousand, due to this, the battery of the engine of the started engine is somewhat;
  • then the grooming donor engine, and we are trying to make a car with a served battery.

If the car with a bad battery started, it means everything is fine, if the starter turns badly and the engine does not grab, you can once again try to recharge the donor battery.

If still a car with a dead battery does not start, then you can connect directly with the battery minus the vehicle with a battery minus, which you want to start. Thus, the battery-donor battery energy will not spend money on charging a dead battery, the whole will go to the starter. And if it is properly seen, with such a connection of wires, the car should start in any case. The car does not start only if there are some malfunctions in the engine or starter.


There are a lot of cases when motorists are driving a car with a dead battery with the cigarette wires with a donor car operating engine. Moreover, that the machine with a served battery quickly started, the donor engine is also pigeoning.

It turns out everything as in the lottery - it can go smoothly, and there will be no problems. But maybe different:

  • the engine control unit will fail at the donor car;
  • fill a diode bridge or voltage regulator on the generator.

When the donor engine is running, the voltage drops during the searction and the load on the generator increases. The more the rechargeable battery of the car was planted and the more of its motor is planted, the harder it is started and the energy is spent more.

From this you can conclude - if the donor engine is low-power, then more likely that the electrical equipment or the generator of this car fails. That is, if the KAMAZ is separated by VAZ 2114, then the probability of breakdown of the KAMAZ generator is small. In the case, on the contrary, most likely, by car VAZ 2114, any electronics with a lot of probability may suffer.

  1. If the car started, the wires should be disabled in the following order using the car.
  • "Minus" from the car body, which started;
  • mass wire from the donor terminal;
  • Plus from a car with a served battery;
  • plus wire from a donor battery.
  1. A small car is not worth a cigarette lighter. Some more solid car, for example, an SUV or truck.
  2. The batteries must have the same voltage, for example, both batteries are calculated on the voltage of 12 volts.
  3. Wires for gifting should be thick and reliable, with good clips at the ends.
