Need to charge battery but electric doo...




By malcolm526 on May 04, 2009

" "
The battery in my BMW735I is dead and the electric doors are locked so I can't get to the hood release to charge the battery.I heard that there is supposed to be an auxillary location to attach the charging cables too, but I don't know where it is.I have a BMW 518SE. The battery is flat and I cannot open the doors so cannot open the hood / bonnet. Please tell me what to do.
Thanks,

if you have a key you can open the hood from the key.as automatic functions are stopped but manually you can open the hood to remove the battery.but if you dont have key.
then
-------------------
crawl underneath the vehicle and attach a battery charger (+ Red) directly to the starter center terminal and the other end( black - )to a good ground. This will charge your battery in some time.
and the problem will be solved.
please do rate the solution.thank you for using fixya.keep updated.thanks.
