Stranded in a Business Bay car park with a dead battery, any quick advice? - kirkcole - 2026-11-09
Currently sitting in the basement car park of my building in Business Bay with a car that won't even crank, just a clicking sound and a dead dash. I've got jump leads in the boot but no other car around at this hour and my neighbour isn't answering. Before I start flagging down strangers I want to make sure I actually know what I'm doing so I don't fry anything or look like an idiot. I've been looking up Quick steps for jump starting a flat battery in Business Bay to see if there's anything specific I should watch for in these underground car parks, since I've heard you're not meant to jump start in enclosed spaces because of the gas. Anyone got a fast answer on whether it's safe down here or whether I should try pushing the car out first? Also roughly how long should I let it run after it starts before I risk turning it off again?
