Hi;

We are trying to jumpstart a 1989 Toyota Camry, but the battery we are jumping it with (that of a 1996 Buick Regal) has side post battery construction. We cannot find the negative end; we kind of need it for this to work. How can we jump start it?

Thanks

      The regal should have smaller wire that is bolted to supply body ground.
      For red cable connected to supply body ground.
