Cannot Open Hood, LOL
12:49 PM 6/15/2009
No, but seriously... I have a 1993 Q45 Infiniti. I got it Used about 6 months ago. Great engine. The car does actually run, I have taken it for a drive. But, now either the car sat in the driveway too long and lost its charge and i need a jump start (I didn't have a license for along time and didn't want to drive without one:pface ) or the battery is just dead. Well, the mechanism to open the hood of my car is located on the driver-side door under the arm rest. The problem is, the switch is electric. And my car battery is dead. It will not pop open when I pull the switch. So, unless this is a fatal design flaw:confused....please tell me how I am supposed to open my hood when the battery dies. Please help is you can, I really like this car and I want to start driving asap. I'm only 18, but I'm sure you can understand how important your first car is to a young man.
The button you referred to in your above post is to open the TRUNK!!!! Hood release is in front of your left knee as you sit in drivers seat, and is manual{non-electric} gotta look just under that portion of the dash!!!!
wow, im an idiot, it was exactly where you said. the thing was i couldnt see it because the plastic piece was broke off. I got it to open but the thing was metal and hidden pretty good. anyways. thanks guys
