The program “Behind the Wheel” has already explored how to light up a car with a dead battery. But what if there is no battery at all? An expert from the series, Mikhail Kolodochkin, shares practical insights on this scenario.
Kolodochkin recalls a real-world test where a car operated without a battery. The result surprised many: the vehicle started and ran smoothly. Yet there is a crucial precaution. To protect the donor vehicle’s electronics, it is wise to disconnect the battery terminals and perform the jump from the terminal posts as if swapping in a live battery within the car itself.
The discussion then expands to cover other practical knowledge about this seemingly simple process. The article clarifies common myths, answers frequent questions, and outlines a straightforward sequence to follow when attempting a jump start in such unusual conditions.
Requires 7,000 tires in popular sizes
The importance of order cannot be overstated. Without reliable tires, public safety systems cannot function properly, and essential medical aid cannot reach those in need.
In collaboration with the Popular Front, the program has organized a fundraising initiative to purchase tires for the vehicles of the People’s Police and the operational services of the LPR and DPR. These vehicles include ambulances, emergency response units, humanitarian aid transports to Donbass residents, and military equipment. Contributions can be made on the designated collection page to support these efforts.
