One thing I’ve learned as a diesel mechanic, you could buy 5 brand new kenworth’s of the same year, make and model, and they would all have small differences. It’s like they just toss together what they have and call it a day. Five trucks is five trucks. Lol.
Yes same here. We have two Kenworth T680’s. One is located where you are indicating under the hood and on the other truck it’s located near the catwalk area on the back.
I have a battery box cover and lost the dang thing...probably flew off somewhere and did who knows what. Cost me like $500 for a replacement...for a frickin battery box cover ...sheesh
I'd be very surprised if you didn't have two little metal posts sticking off the side of your frame, they're called jump posts, and they're directly wired in to your batteries so that you don't have to do all that.
That is correct. On the drivers side. On the frame, just below the power steering pump reservoir. you will see two caps. one red, one black. pull those off, and you will see two post like on a battery. jump it from there, and you will not have to take the steps off. have to open the hood, and you will see them driver's side.
You know, I found a kw at work last night that didn't have any either. For anyone who doesn't have jump posts or a battery door on their kw, keep an 11/16 socket on you.
@Delgado Trucking they werent...thinking. I think I remember some dodge vehicles placing the batteries behind the wheel to where you had to take off the tire to change the battery...all to make you go into the dealership to have work done instead of doing it yourself.
You didn't pay attention under the hood driver's side the jump start post is on the frame with one red cover and a black cover that's where you jump start the 15 kenworth T-680

That’s hilarious. I don’t doubt that at all
Every truck is different unless it's part of a fleet. Every truck is custom ordered.
You Smarter than That.
You know darn good and well That the jump start Terminals are on the Frame
I have 2016 T680 and my jump posts are on the frame on the drivers side under the hood

Yeah, I had jump posts on my last truck. They were in the back by my catwalk. I’m telling you, this truck has 0. Lol

Dude I thought he was rappin for like 45 minutes.
😂
What!!! That sucks my 2018! T680 has battery terminal hook ups under the hood by the oil dip stick for jumping off
Yeah it does suck. Not sure what kenworth was thinking.
@@delgadotrucking do you have any towards the rear of your truck? Specifically mounted on the frame.
