    M1078 jump question

    I agree, This was actually one of the things I did when I first got the m1079, spent some time checking it out and reading through information on it. Today was the first time I had a problem and although based on existing knowledge and other previous research I had some ideas, but definitely...

    M1078 jump question

    At this point I have a couple basic questions : 1) Could I have actually just connected like a standard jump from one 12 volt vehicle to another (by using a pair of the batteries as one big 12 volt, for instance #1+ & #2-) 2) What in the m1079 uses 12v and what uses 24v and is the current...

    M1078 jump question

    Thanks and I definitely agree, will have to make sure I grab another meter just to leave in there. Any other recommended "tools" to keep at all times?

    M1078 jump question

    So I got it going. What I ended up doing was isolating them and giving them a charge and it started up. What I should have done was to test to start between each battery to determine which one is the problem. Thanks everyone for the insight!

    M1078 jump question

    So if I'm facing the battery box, I want to jump the battery that is farthest from me to the left? Am I reading that correctly? or is the one closest to me when I'm facing the box? Just want full clarity before I dive in.

    M1078 jump question

    Thanks sound like a plan!!! This is was partially my initial thought (to connect across the 12 volt side, based on diagram), but wasn't sure and wanted some experience expert help. So tennmogger, what you are saying can safely be done without any risk to my suburban?

    M1078 jump question

    So a single set of jump packs would work? or are you saying that the ones typically used by tow companies have 24 volts?

    M1078 jump question

    Is it possible to jump m1079 from a single vehicle? I just just pulled mine out of fence parked on side of the road to get to another trailer, went 20 minutes later to get in it, and it won't start. I don't have any batter packs or extra batteries, just a suburban and a set of jumpers that...
