Scoob has been off road for a while and ive been going out every now and then to start it up to keep it ticking over, went out last night and cant unlock the car. fob has had battery checked and is fine so isnt that.

the inside led light which flashes to indicate the alarm is set isnt on at all and the key wont work in the locks.

what the hell is going on? any help will be majorly appreciated.

 

key wont open the locks? never heard of that mate........try rac or aa in the morning mate they have equipment slide through the window and unlock the car, providing it will let u open, but as u say the locks wont move....very strange?

 

your car battery is flat.

 

yeah but how do i get in to open the bonnet to get it sorted?

 

brick through the window might be your only hope

 

get aa to open the locks and pull the bonnet catch

 

Key will open door unless disconnected

 

Mine has been exactly the same, stood with battery disconnected for the last 18 months and just put it back on the road

I can unlock my car with the key, and I can disable the alarm, if I re-enable the alarm it keeps going off, sometimes locks and sets the alarm with the fob, sometimes doesnt

I thought it might have been a flat battery, but its fully charged so thats ok, not sure if there is a back up battery in the alarm unit itself
