Once jump starting and turn off will it turn back on??

[@a.j.-uncleanders3950]

I wonder how to open this
Right side on a carrier.
The middle easy to open
But can't find any handles on the right " door"

[@texasdevil1193]

It's the right door obviously lol. You kept trying the wrong one. 😝

What size of jumper cables you need to use??

[@Ryan-zq3ij]

I have a cascadia 125 with a modified extended frame, with a tk 700s Reefer unit. I’m using a 10’ or 12’ set of jumper cables and it’s about perfect. I’m 6’3” and if I fold the cables in half, the ‘U’ comes up to my mouth. Take that as you will. Hopefully that gives you a good idea for how long. :)
