Hi all,
First time posting, and I'm very embarrassed to be kicking it off with such a stupid mistake I made. As the shortest bit of backstory, I had to leave my brake pedal depressed overnight, so thought it would be a good idea to disconnect the battery so the lights wouldn't be on all night. So, what did I do? Open the car, pull the hood release cable, close and lock the car, open the hood and disconnect the battery, then close the hood...
I am now unable to get in to the car, as even the manual key entry does not seem to work if the battery is disconnected. So, does anyone have any tips on how to get out of this pickle? Does the coat hanger window trick actually work? Is there any way to get power to the lock circuit without having access to the engine bay to connect the battery? How many times should I punch myself in the face for being such an idiot?
Thanks, Danny
