wheres yr battery live?(they put them all over the ruddy place)

[darkdezigns]

anyways when u do answer,hopefully yr bootlock still works,and u can get in it,if so disconnct battery earth and dab on and off should unlock it

[surfenstein]

battery is under back seat drivers side and yes boot opens fine.

[darkdezigns]

bugger did u deadlock it?dont think u can get to battery from boot

[Artful_dodger]

My mate has a 535i and his battery is behind the rear offside wheel arch in the boot, his alarm/immobiliser went t*ts up und the thye only thing we could do was what's written in the above post, keep tapping the battery lead on and off the battery pole

Cheers

plz take this with a pinch of salt as i havent roadsided one for years,but i think u three choices
1.lock out kit/coat hanger wire(only if yr rear windows are manual,or u have an unlock button in car?),slippery jim will do it if u have the knack and it isnt dead locked
2,im saying this with caution,but im 95% sure it will unlovk by putting power thru sidelight circuit,ie jump pack/power probe(but at yr own will
3.break glass
im pretty sure its cause yr battery is flat tho,so u need to feed power from sumwhere in boot
hope this helps

no worries,any live u can get to in boot shud do the trick,or if u got manual windows in the bck,gently persuede top of back door open put wire in and unwind window

Have you got fixed quarterlights on the rear windows? I've managed to slip a credit card around the rubber seal before, pop the glass out, pull the lock and put it back.
