High George,
The reason is probably due to the recommended system on your car or truck
which will have a negative earth system.
If you make the positive connection last there is a danger of your spanner
making contact with some other part of the car and "Bloooie" you've done a
welding job! or melted your spanner.
This can't happen if you make the negative connection last.
Regards
John Ensoll

Subject: [RCSE] Why Negative Last
Why are we told to hook up the negative lead to a battery last, such as when
hooking up our battery charger to a 12V source? gv
