Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: Doors don't open !!

« on: 29 June 2009, 20:48:45 »

Well, finally (and after the rain) the key lock did not work at all, so I jack up the (heavy) car, took a pair of long wires (or cables?), connected them to my other car's battery, crawled under it and after six or seven attempts (with a friend's help, certainly)...  doors were opened !!

To prevent future episodes like this, I left the center back seat free to be opened from the boot.

I really really really appreciate your absolutely useful help, mates.

From Chile, my best regards,
P.

Still trying (and still raining), but by using the manual key -turning left-right about 1/4 circle clockwise (would it turn more?)- and the handle don't work neither.
I'll take a brake untill the rain stop, and then I'll try the Endwood's 2nd. approach. (Keeping the firm kick as a last chance).
Thanks all, friends (and sorry about my poor english).
I'll keep you informed.

Hi, Lizzie.  I tried your advice but door is still locked.  The key turns easily about 1/4 the circle clockwise, not more.  Should I try harder? I don't want to brake the only key I own!
Maybe I should wait till the rain is over. What a mess!

« on: 28 June 2009, 16:33:40 »

First of all: Hello, I'm an absolutely newby and I'm looking for urgent help.  Also, as you'll see, my english is not so good cause I'm from South America.

The car: Opel Omega CD 2.5 1997.
The problem: Last night left the car on the "lock on" (anti theft system) and this morning..  can't open the doors ! They are locked, the remote control does not work (I think baterry is ok) and (the worst) by using the key does not work at all.

Also, the car battery seems to be discharged.

Please.. any help?
