- If, with a completely discharged battery, an external power source is used to start the engine and the vehicle immediately starts moving (without giving a dead battery some time to recharge), interruptions in the ignition system may begin, which will lead to a stop of the car and the inability to continue driving.
- This phenomenon occurs as a result of the high current consumption of the ABS system for self-diagnosis. To avoid this phenomenon, you must either allow the battery to charge while the engine is idling, or disable the ABS system by removing the fuse link from the ABS circuit (pic. 15.76). At the same time, the ABS warning lamp will light up.

After the battery is sufficiently charged, turn off the engine, reinstall the fuse (ABS) and start the engine again. At the same time, make sure that the ABS warning lamp is off.
