not saposed too, it could burn out the diodes in the alternater, if you hook up the cables while it is in the "charge" mode.

Hey, Bud I've been tinkering out in the garage, even straightened up my tool box a little. Then my wife says my car has a flat, get half soaked inflating the tire. Bring it in the garage, pull the tire. Now I can't find anybody to fix it, prob. the only thing I don't like about living in the country. The hatch isn't opening either so I might as well check that out while it's raining and nothing else to do.
