Thank you for the advice!

I'll try to manualy open with the key first thing next morning. Yes, it is a facelift model. As long as I can open the hood , I can just call one of my friends to wire enough power to start the car.

Sorry for the duplicate thread but the other member's problem had a different cause so I thought that a new thread would be better

These electrical issues are soooo frustrating. Never had a single mechanical problem in 2+ years of use but the electrics are dropping like flies. Lost my front-right speakers for some reason, probably the cause of the battery drainage. Also the screen is going

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Total battery loss + locked out of my own car.

« on: 28 June 2009, 22:11:24 »

Hello! I own a 2.2 DTI 2001 Omega and I am in a bit of a dillema.

I've been away for the last month or so and it seems that my car's battery is completely dead. This wouldn't be a problem as I am aware of the electrical issues on the car and I always carry a recharge kit in the trunk. BUT as the connected battery is dead I can't even open the car much less open the trunk.

If I try opening manually with the key, it will only turn about 1/8 either side. The pin will rise for a bit but the door will not open. Even if I manage to get inside the car, is there any way to open the trunk?

For the record - the car is parked in such a way that I cannot go under it to connect another power source.


Thank you.
