Omega General Help / Re: Flat battery on '95 V6 omega

« on: 24 January 2011, 15:58:51 »

As of 3pm today, problem solved. I coupled a pair of jump leads to a booster, hooked the earh onto a bolt head, then used an nsulated extension bar to probe the input on the solenoid while wifey hit the button....hey presto. Thanks for all the suggestions. You're quite right, the deadlocked doors will NOT open. They may have fixed this on later models.

Thanks Entwood and Mutant Cav, short of taking a hammer to the window, there seems to be no mechanical way of opening the doors. I'll try pm today the tip that Alan gave me and see if that works. Daft I call it!

Thanks Alan, well, the AA man tried your suggestion jacking up the front. It didn't work. The key will not operate any lock, including the rear hatch. When the weather clears, I'll have a go myself. Oh, thanks for the complement BTW, I'm 18 really, I just look 67!

Hi, everybody, new kid on the block (I'm 67) The battery on my 1995 Omega v6 2.5 has gone flat. I now cannot get into the car, and the AA can't help. Any ideas?
