Info - Proper Battery Charging or Jump Starting Procedure to Avoid Electrical System Damage

This bulletin is being revised to update the model years. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 04-06-03-004A (Section 06 -- Engine/Propulsion System).

This bulletin is being issued to inform dealers that warranty part returns indicate electrical system damage to the cooling fan and roof door module circuits due to improperly charging or jump starting the vehicle. It has been found that some dealers may be using the IP battery positive stud at the underhood fuse block to charge or jump start the vehicle. To properly charge or jump start the vehicle, you must always use the remote terminals located in the engine compartment.

For the positive connection, use the remote terminal on the right inner fender.

For the negative connection, use the remote terminal located near the power steering fluid reservoir (marked GND).
