What r my options:battery is dead and trunk not opening

[RevDice]

Vanessa.I purchased one of those Black & Decker battery chargers. I'm going to plug it in now. I'll let you know if I get enough juice to pop the hood. I'm thinking it might take awhile.

Vanessa... The battery booster worked immediately to pop the hood. We've had such cold temps here, I'm afraid my battery is frozen, so I'm not going to charge or jump it on the car. I'll take it out and bring it inside to thaw. Won't be surprised if I need to replace it. Battery Tender for me immediately after storage next year.

The Black & Decker product is the Simple Start Vehicle Battery Booster. I got it in ebay. Couldn't find it locally.

Good Luck.

Walmart, they have the trickle charger for $17, have had one on my 911 for 4 years so I bought another for my 986. Not as pretty as a factory Porsche charger but they are all probaly made in the same factory in China.
