Remove cables from battery and connect positive to positive and negative to negative. Preferably use a car charger with a built in meter so you won't overcharge. If not, use a voltage meter to check bat. until voltage measures 12.6 volts.

Make sure your bat cables are good and clean, and that your alternator is properly recharging the bat.
