Need to charge my Battery . . .

Hi All,

I need to charge my Battery before it goes completely dead, where should I connect the charger? The same place I would connect Jumpers?

Shoot...I don't have my manual handy. Did you check that or was it no help? I'd kinda like to know as well.

yup, used my PDF Manual to check . . . no mention of charging, just jumping and they recommend the terminals under the hood. They do suggest disconnecting the negative if stored for long periods but I try to avoid that with all the 9 cars currently in storage.

Yes, I think that is the correct way to do it. If it works for jump starting...I believe it should work for trickle charging.

i put a charger on my car for the winter. the charger i actually used had a set of connecting wires, with the easy disconnect, to go onto the battery. i connected them to the small nuts on the battery and ran the wire through a hole in the bottom of the trunk. it looked like it was meant to be used for this.
