6. Electronic components of vehicles

6.1. History

For more than twenty years, vehicles and engines of all kind are provided with elec-
tronic components more and more sophisticated.
Those are perfectly compatible with the use of a Booster in contrary to the old starting
practices, still too much used and extremely dangerous for vehicle electronics and for
the health and safety of the users.

6.2. Car manufacturers' recommendations

Faced with the multiple requests from garage owners, some manufacturers have
worked out a process of intervention to follow if the battery fails that excludes any
other form of intervention under pain of loss of warranty.
It is, therefore, important to read the vehicle user manual before doing anything on a
vehicle's battery.
Our boosters perfectly match manufacturers' requirements. None prohibits or advises
against the use of a battery or a release booster.

6.3. High voltage surge

How can one damage or destroy one or more electronic components?
Answer: by provoking high voltage surges.
A high voltage surge is a small spark or a very powerful stray flash provoked by voltage
differences, short circuits or reversals of polarity, or again, and quite often, making
electrical welds on vehicles without disconnecting the battery or using a special Anti-
Zap filter.
The small surges damage or destroy electronic components of board computers or
ordinary logic controllers.
Stray flashes and electrical welding, contrariwise, do greater damage.
If the Booster is used according to instructions, it is impossible to provoke a voltage
surge.
