Locked keys under hood, alarm engaged

[BruceH]

Here are a couple of links. I re-routed mine when I cleaned the radiators. Made it easy. One guy mentions just removing the right headlight and then using a wire to fish it through the tow hook. I guarantee if you do this mod, you will never need it, but if you don't, well...........

ahhh man you see that's one of those thing.... once you see it, it WILL happen. Karma?! dunno what its called but this often works on me for some strange reasons)

Much easier to just buy another key (even just to unlock the doors and not start the car) and stash it somewhere accessable...... I know of some that stash it behind the rear license plate....and others that wire it inside the front lower grills.

I had the same problem, I had disconnected the battery for a long term storage (5 weeks) and must have armed the security controls. By adding 12v. to the C3 terminal and following the listed fixes, I was able to open the front hood.
Thanks to all!
