Great question! Always connect the positive lead first, then the negative. This helps prevent any accidental shorts while you’re testing. Safety first!

When connecting the battery tester, should I connect the positive lead first, or does it not matter? I always worry about shorting something out!

I’m curious if the results are comparable or if I should stick to a dedicated tester.

Like, what other things could it be? Ignition issues or something?
