@Lownewulf Even when the repair guy showed up, he couldn’t do it. You can’t jump what you can’t access.
@AlliFlowers there's an external access port to open the frunk. The video I linked walks through the entire process to get access.
@Lownewulf Not my car. Not my problem. But thanks.
@AlliFlowers but what about your friend? He's been locked out of his car and scheduling repair appointments all week! We've made a miraculous discovery of a solution with the help of the Internet. Aren't you going to go help your friend??!??one?
@Lownewulf I could copy from here and paste to Facebook. He’s already had it towed, so it’s not a biggie now.
@AlliFlowers It takes a bit of work, but remove the round cover on the front bumper. Then connect jumper cables, or even a 9V battery to open the hood.
@mrecount 🤷♀️ I wouldn’t buy one.
@AlliFlowers Jumping the 12V is easy enough for an owner to do in their garage. Not quite as convenient as a mechanical lock backup, but still doable for the rare cases of sudden 12V failure.
