Bob, I copied your picture and re-located some actual points that are solid grounds. Use these if you need to.
Someone else suggested that you should not "jump start" a car at all due to the sensitive nature of the electronics in late model cars. I don't agree with that necessarily, but HOW to do it is always arguable, so I won't actually suggest i know the proper way,as someone else invariably will argue my suggested procedure and it's just not worth the hassle.
There is a good alternative though, that involves using one car to charge the battery of another without jeopardizing either vehicle or their respective electronics.
1) disconnect the battery that's dead. No need to remove it from the car, just disconnect it.
2) Using Jumper cables, connect the positive and negative cables to the "dead" battery at the posts.
3) connect the "+" cable to the running vehicle positive post.
4) connect the Negative cable to a good solid ground in the running car. ( the reason to connect to something other than battery ground post/cable, is simple. You are avoiding sparks from igniting the battery gases................see?)
5) Let the running car charge the secondary connected battery for a 15 minute period or so (longer if desired or necessary), then disconnect the running vehicle and basically the rest of the connections and re-connect the battery that was originally disconnected and You should have enough to start a car with, or at least crank it to troubleshoot.
Hope this helps. I was kinda tired writing this and may have missed something, but I can assure you, the general idea is in ther in it's glory.
