I just replaced VAL gaskets, battery, and baron on the compressor and my 1996 Nissan Maxima will only start when it is jumped. The alternator is fine and the starter turns over fine but won't catch to start unless like mentioned it's jumped.PLEASE HELP!

The only thing jumping the car does is add more available voltage. That means it's just a matter of getting a new, stronger battery.

Only right where they connect to the battery because that is where you are connecting the cables to.
