Sagaris locked, immobiliser on and keys in the car....ahhh!

[JLF]

Any help on this most appreciated.
After a winter in the garage I was sorting the battery and getting the beast ready for a nice Sunday drive. Without wanting to bore anyone I have managed to lock my Sag with the immobiliser on and the keys in the car.

Anyone know how I can open the car and get the keys out?

PM me if you know how to do this.......help apprecuiated.

Thanks

Maybe a dumb answer... Spare keys?

[JLF]

Not a dumb question. Dumb answer, cant find them!

Thanks, unfortunately I don't own the great book. With my Sag being a little unique in the engine department I never thought the price justified the investment...I was clearly wrong.

If anyone does and can PM me the how and what I need to do that would be great.

Did you sort it .. Giz a ring if you are stuck . I know 👍

Thanks all for the messages. Unfortunately the common resolution did not work. Even ferreting around with the trusty coat hanger hook did not work.

Not much skin left on knuckles now. Will call a couple of TVR specialist tomorrow.

Thanks all.......

I'm confused... Unless you've upgraded the factory alarm to a self-close system I can't see how you've locked the keys in the car ??

Did same thing ! Give Str8six a call they sorted me out !!!!

[JLF]

Well I have tried the recommended solution. After much pocking about and pulling ....no release cable. There is a cable tie where it was but no sign. It's somewhere just not where it should be.

Has anyone got an alternative solution?

You can. Never leave the keys inside the car with the door shut when you reconnect the battery. Guess what happens ...... Yup the doors lock & the windows roll up!!

[JLF]

Exactly what happened.

Thanks to all those who helped with advise. Chas at Srt8Six who said that even at my age crawling into a Sag was easy, and Paul at PPC in Melton who let me know this was going to be a bugger….he was right.

So never disconnect the battery with the keys in the car….. lesson learnt. Saying that one person who will remain nameless told me they had done this twice
