[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 898974, member: 60724"] Maybe the terminals on your ST were corroded and you didn't get good contact, thus a weak jump???? Did you clamp the jumper cables on then rotate them back and forth to make sure you had a good bite and connection onto the terminals? Also, maybe your ST's battery is a little low on charge (old). Yes, if the vehicle is running it will help, but the brunt of the charge still comes from the battery....keeping the vehicle running simply means that the battery is also (potentially) charging while you jump. (pretty sure I'm right on that). TJR [/QUOTE]
