I generally agree but there is one thing I don't understand. In the moment, I tried boosting the car at both the battery and also under the hood. With the battery disconnected, I couldn't even get the booster to power the electrics (completely dead).
I tried again this AM when I went to check that the car made it to the shop. Same thing, tryinf both a booster and a known good battery, I couldn't get any life out of the car (i.e.: door locks) with the negative of the battery in the trunk disconnected. However when I reconnected the trunk battery, I could operate the doors. What am I missing? Shouldn't I be able to boost the car with the battery completely removed? I thought if I apply a good battery to the positive post and the chassis, it should work, but I got NOTHING.
