I've been following your alarm/battery issues and I'm a bit perplexed  |
No, I have not been able to open the frunk. The emergency procedure with the second battery did not open the frunk. All it did was sound the alarm constantly.
Next I removed the fender liner to locate the release cable. It was no where to be found. I checked the tow hole as well.
Next, I purchased a cigarette lighter charging unit, but when I hook it up, it too wants to sound the alarm.
In my first post of this thread, I described the alarm as a chirp every 30 seconds or so. That was not a very good description. Now, I understand a little more about how the charger is working. It is charging for a few seconds, then stops the charge for about 30 seconds. So, the chirp, which today is better described as 2 horn beeps, is occuring only when the charger is actually charging.
The basic question remains. How to kill the power to the alarm system/horn. Doing so would make the battery more efficent at trying to charge (I have my doubts if this battery will even take a charge) and certainly keep the peace in the neighborhood.
Thanks for sticking with me. Maybe one of these bits of information will shake loose a bit of helpful information from someone's memory.
JFP, I'd like to do just that. Help me get the frunk open and I will follow your advice.
Thanks, Joe
