Classic 996 newbie error - battery went flat, now locked out of the luggage compartment.
1998 C2, so i think it doesn't have an electric latch, but does have an interlock that stops the lever moving.
Seen a Porsche TSB electric fix for a Boxster, jury rigging an electric jumper through fuse C3 - anyone know if this should work for a 996 please?
Also understand you can take out the whole lever assembly, but electric seats are in the way of the allen key holes.
Also understand you can manually operate the pull cable if you take the wheel arch liner out - not sure which arch though? Also complicates that car is parked on a slope, has 18" wheels and the jack and wheel nut lock are in the locked compartment.
Any help appreciated.
