Imagine you visit some place with your friends or family, parked your car, left it in a parking spot, and went to have a great time. But in excitement, you forgot to switch off the headlights, and by the time you came back, the car’s battery was dead, and you couldn’t start it.
In the panic, you try again and again, but the car refuses to budge. And you don’t have a jump-starting wire/kit. Now the question arises, what should you do? No worries, in this article, we are going to share some important tips with you so that you can start the vehicle without any issues.
The solution is PUSH!
The solution is to push the car, but remember, this solution is only for manual vehicles. Now, what you have to do is put the car in 2nd gear, press the clutch and ask your friends to push the car. Once the vehicle gets rhythm, release the clutch, and the car will start.
The reason to put the car in second gear is that the engine needs momentum to start, and the first gear doesn’t give it that. You can also start the car in this style in reverse gear, but people mostly prefer the second gear.
Another thing to remember is that you need to push the car on a straight road. And after the car starts, keep it on for some time before driving because it will charge the battery quickly.
Things to Remember
The first thing is that a push cannot start automatic cars. Secondly, you cannot start the car through this method if the car is parked for quite a long time. It will only work if the car is parked for a short time period, for example, keeping the headlights on.
And lastly, if the car is getting switched off repeatedly, then there could be a problem with the car’s generator, and you need to get it checked.
