    I have a big problem. My scuderia have no power. I think this is easy i just open my door manual with my key to the "driver" door. But when i put in the key i can "hear" that something is happend, but when i pull the handle i can pull it a little bit upp but nothing is happend.. i can´t open the door?? If i pull more the i will break it..

    what is the problem? Why will the key not unlock the door "TOTALLY" so i can open it manuel? what could be the problem?

    Please.. help me... i dont no what to do...

    If there is no power the window will not drop so that is what you feel. You are safe enough to pull the door a little harder to release the glass from the seal.

    If the window doesn't come down a bit, you will not be able to open the door. What you should really do is try with your palm to push down the window just enough to clear the window seal and open the door.

    okay.. so when i try to "pull the handle" and it seams to be "stock" a little bit up.. when i pull the handle, its not because the door isnt open its because the windows is not come down a little bit and thats why my handle is feel so "hard" when i pull it?`

    But isnt it dangerous to try to get the window down a litle bit, i mean could i "crash" the window motor to do this? and what is the best way to do it? with my fingers? i have tried a little bit...

    correct. While pulling the handle, use your palm as a suction cup to pull down the window.

    I do not own a Scud, but a 360 and maybe the result wont be the same....

    This happened to me, and yes, i was also afraid of "breaking" the door..... but finally the door opened, and no damages to the window..... it "arches"? a little bit, but finally gets out, but without battery you won't be able to close it...... (i did not tried this as i had a battery replacement).

    good luck...

    Hi Slcsl,

    Will not help but I have a Scud and I confirm that the key does not open mechanically the door if no power !!!! And it does on 360. But I almost sure that the door remains locked and nothing to do with the window...
    I'm sorry but I have no idea how to access the hood compartment ?!

    This is a long long guess and I have no idea if it will work? Also I do not have a SCUD. Mine is a 360.

    Located inside the wheel well of the front passenger side, there is a pull cord (very hidden). I always wonder what it is for? Maybe it is to unlock "something" in case of an emergency? I do not know if SCUD has one?

    Sorry that I can not be much help but just in case?
