OK, is it Neg off first or Pos off First ???

Then putting it back, is it Neg on First or Pos on First ???

Disco-Ron:
My opinion.....

Neg OFF first, that way if the spanner touches earth when you're doing the positive it won;t arc......

and when refitting, positive first, for exactly the same reason!!

I'm prepared to be prooved wrong though....LOL!!

Bishops Finger:
Neg off first

Pos on first

Range Rover Blues:
Like RON says, the one that should be connected on it's own is the positive, same with jump leads, always isolate with the negative terminal.  It's exactly the opposite of where you fit a switch, hence the confusion.

mike142sl:
Thanks guys, I got the first bit right so it's off to get the second bit right now. How am I going to remeber that? NOFPOF :huh: hang on that could go both ways.
