Disable the Engine stop at Stop-light

Yes. Just ensure you connect leads to the grounding rod and positive terminal on the battery.

Connecting both leads to the battery can ruin the battery sensor and backfeed the system. I have heard of some control modules being fried because of this, totally bricking a vehicle. Look at the manual...

Shouldn't it be at that grounding rod and the "remote" positive terminal (not directly to the battery terminal)?

Can anyone verify this or have a diagram to display the correct way to jump start?

There's discussion, some pics & links on this thread, and others...

From the manual.

From the manual.

I was wondering what the red, plastic cap was for and I would have never thought that lug on top of the strut housing was a ground.

Good info!

I had to jump my car the other day. I hadn't moved it in about two weeks and it just barely didn't have the power to turn it over. I found that grounding lug pretty easily when looking around for a spot to attach a ground. I'm glad to know it's the official spot. It was absolutely the easiest spot to use.
