How to jumpstart using a jumpstart power unit fidodido Sep 7th, 09, 11:56 PM #1 (permalink)
I bought this yellow "Rechargeable Power Station" from the Autobacs.
Charged it until the red charging light is no more on.

Bring to the car and connect the cables, power on the unit and turn on the booster cables.
Try to on the engine but couldn't.

I turn off the car, leave the connection on and use my battery tester to test it and it says 13.2V charging but after waiting for 15 mins, I still cannot jumpstart the car.

Anything I didn't do correctly?

Or the battery is gone case?
But the front panel lights can come on, side and back windows (except the driver window) can scroll down.
The 2 din touchscreen radio also can be turned on.

Btw, 1 front seat light is left to be on for 18 hours.
It is a honda fit 2008, just turning 13 mths old.

Many thanks in advance!
