SOMEONE BROKE INTO MY CAR AND CUT OFF MY BATTERY CABLES. I BOUGHT NEW ONES BUT DONT KNOW WHERE TO HOOK THE BACK TOGETHER.
The positive cable will connect to your starter and alternator. The negative connects to an engine ground. For more info check out - www.techcapri.com
The red one goes to the positive. the other one goes to Negative on the battery.
SOURCE: there is a wire attached
the car started and run before? if so, bypass the wire with a wire connection kit from autozone or advance auto,it may be a metal fuse link for an added stereo,or another application. it may even be a fuseable link. if so take it off, then go to parts place and do not be afraid to ask questions!you may have to buy an application to car to make it run safely.so what!i would sleep better knowing i did not give you wrong advice.disconnect the application, take it to autozone, advance auto,nappa. and find out what the application is. you cannot go wrong by doing that, don't be afraid to ask questions! if i could see it, i would be able to tell you what to do and how. but i can't thank you for choosing fixya.com

Use a wrench to remove the negative and positive battery cables: They are clearly labeled "+" and "-." Always remove the negative cable first, as this isolates the power to the metal parts of your car. Tuck the cables away from the battery as you don't want them to accidentally touch a battery terminal when you're wiring your alternator.
Locate the alternator terminals. There are two: one marked "live," "pos" or "+" and the other marked "neg," "field" or "-."
Locate the two cables. The positive (red) cable goes to your battery via a wire loom or harness. The negative (black) cable attaches to a metal part of your car.
Check how the cables attach to the alternator terminals. Some connect using eyelets that hook over the terminal and tighten with a bolt; others connect by inserting the wire under the terminal and tightening a bolt.
Loosen the two bolts using a suitable-sized wrench or, if the cables connect using eyelets, remove the bolts.
Insert the exposed end of the negative (black) cable under the loosened bolt on the negative terminal of the alternator, then tighten the bolt. If the cable has an eyelet, hook it over the terminal and screw the bolt back in place and tighten using a wrench.
Insert the exposed end of the positive (red) cable under the loosened bolt on the positive terminal of the alternator, then tighten the bolt. If the cable has an eyelet, hook it over the terminal and screw the bolt back in place and tighten using a wrench.
Replace the positive battery cable on the positive battery terminal using a wrench. Replace the negative battery cable on the negative battery terminal.
