Battery Jump Start on the M-16
A battery jump start gets a car with a flat battery running again, 24/7, anywhere in Pakistan. Our technician uses a booster pack to start the car, then tests the battery and alternator so you know whether it will start again tomorrow. On the M-16 we cover the full route from Karnal Sher Khan Interchange (M-1) to Chakdara, in both directions.

What happens
Safe boost with a booster pack
We use a portable booster with surge protection, so there is no need to park another car nose to nose in a tight basement.
Battery and alternator test
Once the car is running, we test the battery and the charging voltage, so you know if the battery is worn out or the alternator is faulty.
Replacement if you want it
If the battery is finished, we can fit a replacement on the spot. We confirm the battery price with you before fitting.
Staying safe on the M-16
- Between Palai and Chakdara the motorway climbs and descends through the Malakand hills. Use a low gear going down and watch the temperature gauge going up, especially in a loaded car.
- Traffic to and from Swat can bunch up near the Chakdara end at holiday times. Leave a long gap and be ready for slow traffic as you approach the end of the motorway.
- Winter mornings can bring fog on the flat section near the M-1 and Mardan. Slow down, use low beams and fog lights, and never stop in a live lane to wait for it to clear.
- If you stop, park fully on the hard shoulder, switch on hazards, place a warning triangle well behind the car and wait behind the barrier. Motorway Police can be reached on 130.

Questions
Do you provide battery jump start on the whole M-16?
Yes, from Karnal Sher Khan Interchange (M-1) to Chakdara in both directions, 24/7.
How do I know it is the battery and not something else?
If the dashboard lights are dim or the starter only clicks, it is usually the battery. If the engine turns over normally but will not fire, the fault is elsewhere, and we can send a mechanic instead.
Can you jump-start a hybrid like a Toyota Aqua or Prius?
Yes. Hybrids have a small 12V battery that can go flat, and we boost it from the correct jump point under the bonnet or in the fuse box.
Do you cover the Swat Motorway beyond Chakdara?
The open motorway ends at Chakdara, and the second phase towards Fatehpur is still under construction. If you have broken down on the road beyond Chakdara, call us with your location and we tell you on the call how we can help.
