If you’re ever in a bind and can’t start your car, there are a few things you can do to get it in neutral.

  1. Open the hood and remove any obstructions. This will allow the engine to run freely and prevent it from starting.
  2. Use a jumper cables to connect the negative battery terminal on your car to the positive terminal on the battery in your house or office. Turn on your car and wait for it to start up. If it doesn’t, try connecting the other end of the jumper cables to another battery and turning on your car again. If that doesn’t work, you may need to take your car into an auto or repair shop for help.
