New Porsche owner and I知 making my first attempt to repair a broken ignition switch.
Could not remove my key after driving it yesterday and realized I would have to disconnect the battery so it wouldn稚 drain the power. No problem except I closed the lid before I realized I wouldn稚 be able to use the hood release button. I assume the accessory jumper post in the fuse box won稚 work because I removed one of the battery cables?
Is my only other option to remove the driver side wheel and try to access the hood latch cable from behind the protective shroud of the wheel well?
To make matters worse, I can稚 access the tire jack and bolt socket with the lid being locked. I can use a jack from another of my vehicles; will a standard set of socket wrenches remove the Tire Lug nuts?
I know these are rookie mistakes but any advice would be much appreciated!
