No electrical power
 

New battery installed drove car to work,8 hours later car dead as a nail could not get hood open,When hooked up to fuse box positive post pull out .Tried charging threw the pull out nothing can't get hoods to open .

new battery could be duff. Alternator not charging or something is drawing power ?

How did you jump start the car without getting the hood open?

Was your battery light on while driving?

Jumper connection in the footwell fusebox. It has a slide out connector for the positive.

I knew you could charge from there, I didn't know it could also be used for jump

DONT jump START the car from there!! Just use it to to supply power for the trunks/hoods :)

What Brad said
 

I would never jump anywhere but the battery terminals, a tremendous amount of current is drawn on a jump start....you want that battery in line and absorbing all the spikes and noise that takes place. Use the auxiliary port to open the hood....but not to jump the car off

i'm just guessing.. i cant think of anywhere someone may jump from
