Jim, Yes that would be the easiest way. Unfortunately there isn't one to be found anywhere under the hood. Or I just can't find it. Any other ideas? Thanks Mike

Are the accessory plugs where you plug it in and charge the car safe to use as I'v seen on various websites.

the charger way worked. I made sure the ignition was in the off position before charging. charged for 5 minutes and hd enough juice to open the trunk. Mike

If you have a key the key hole may be cold, just warm it up with warm water. You can also use lighter or whatever is handy for just a second. The key should turn and the trunk should pop open.

Opened fuse cover under hood and applied 12 volts to an unused fuse termial and Shazam istant power to the car. Also started vehicle with jumper pack this way. Good luck.
