Open up Trunk Door Without Battery

Locked the automobile with remote witht the trunk open. Removed the bombardment, close the torso hat.
You know what's side by side. You can't open the trunk. I tin can unlock the front door, sneak into the
trunk, pry open up the floor and insert the bombardment to exist able to unlock the torso door with the remote.

I have a 'super' jumper that can jumper a completely dead car though with the completely drained,
in the cold car. When I purchased it, the manufacuturer warned this setting should just be used in an emergency.
With the battery out of the car, tin can I connect the jumper to the terminals under the hood merely to
run across if I tin unlock the rear tail door? Anyone done this before?

Whatever other way to open the trunk than my crude way? This volvo is one am working on.

you'll be alright with the jumper pack, bold that your battery cables aren't shorted in the torso.

a 10A battery charger would do the aforementioned.
You don't need a agglomeration of current to run the modules responsible for central locking.

If you did not secure the battery cables, or there's even the remote possibility they are grounded to the chassis don't hook up any power to the jumper points. You lot'll catch something on burn down.

On the S60, there is a trivial plastic plug to the right of the handle. Remove it and use central in fundamental lock. There must exist a similar system for the XC70.

Practise y'all hateful to say "they are NOT grounded"?

I retrieve what he ways is if you disconnected the positive cable to the bombardment in the dorsum and the end of it is touching the chassis of the car- then it would be grounded and hooking up a battery to open up the car could meet sparks fly, possibly commencement a burn besides, not to mention all of your electronics in your car getting zapped- it would be something to avert at all costs. Can you lot see in your window to check that out- to see if the positive end of the cable is touching a metal surface of your automobile?

The bombardment is completely out which is why I got into that predicament in the starting time place. The automobile will be sitting for a while. Got it as a fix-a-upper.

When I removed the battery, I just motion the cables out of the way. Though I 'always' try to place the removed
cables in a style not to touch any metal materials for then re-installing the battery. Because I am not 100%
sure, the safest thing I should do would exist to unlock the front end driver's door, crawl to the back, heighten the mat and
the cover lid and identify the battery in there. Volition be an uneasy fit (for my age). No doubt, this volition be the safest
method to avoid 'frying' something in the automobile in powering the arrangement under the hood without really knowing nigh
the terminals positions in the battery compartment. I ameliorate be safe than sorry.

I sure appreciate all the help I got from you folks. Thank you.

Why put key in position II ?

Not sure but those are the Volvo instructions if you e'er disconnect the bombardment.
Others who have not done this on the P2 models had electrical glitches until they re-did that part of hooking back upwards a battery.

Les is more.
