I can't get in.

[The Hood]

My car is to be picked up this week for repair (hopefully wednesday) but i went out to the garage today to try to start it but the car would not let me into it, could someone please e-mail me the method used to get into car when battery is flat so i can put it on trickle charge.

TIA

Are you in yet? if not drop me a mail.

You have a Leven Anderson jobby on the car Glyn that will let you charge the battery or jump start it.

Or have you left the leads in the boot?

But of course they are in the boot mate

Can't believe i've left it to go flat, i've only had the car for over 2 years and never had this happen to me.

Recieved thanks.

I had heard of the way to get in before but couldn't remember it, it came back to me when i read the e-mail, just need to put it to the test now.

Thanks again.

Mind you, did try to get to it at Le Mans to jump start a Range Rover (i think it was) but could not get to it to fit the leads, i think the car needs to be jacked up to get the plug in as, if i remember properly, its fitted underneath the chassis in the centre of the engine bay (whose idea was that?)

No it's not ...it's on the chassis behind the off side front wheel.

Great idea IMHO but I never had to use it

Will have to look tommorrow to see who's right now as you seem quite sure (you must have a good memory)

Is a good idea,as is the accumate i had fitted when i bought it (just a shame i didn't use it when i put the car away)

Well done now EVERYBODY knows how to get into a Chim!

Do think before posting this type of in formation in on a public forum in future please!

Oh - Hello Al

[Paul JT]

Appologies for my brain not working last night. Didn't think about those not so honest people out there.

[robstvr]

Would someone be able to mail me this method, too. 4 years of Chim ownership with no access issues, my time must be on the way, and forewarned, etc, etc.....
