So I was washing my car and my TSX won't turn on I'm so mad now I have wait for my sister to bring some jumper cables and give me a jump start. I never had to jump start my car but I just clamp the + terminal and the - to a metal part on the car right?

 

She has to clamp the (-) to a ground and connect the (+) to her positive. Then you connect the (+) to your positive and the (-) to your negative.

 

You have it backwards.

 

u go positive to urs than positive to hers then negative to hers then negative to urs. u have to do it in a circle.

 

You could have also called Acura roadside assistance and they would have done it for you.

 

should be a direction on the cable...don't worry man

 

only if it is still under warranty (4 years-50,000 miles)My 06 warranty ran out at 18 months.

 

Thanks guy I tried to jump start it but the battery would not hold the charge but it was a pain in the ass because it started to snow so I ended up buying a new battery. But now my radio doesn’t work I try to get the code from MyAcura but it said my phone or zip code were not correct so I need to call Acura Customer care but I need to wait until Monday. I doesn’t really matter since today is cold as fk -30 wind-chill but it still sucks.

 

50,000 miles in 18 months!

My TSX had the same problem, it just wouldn't hold a charge. I was left stranded 3 times because of my stupid battery...but the dealer replaced it for free. Maybe you should have tried that instead of buying a new one? Too late I guess.
