    I know this has been done to death and I've searched over the archives.

    My car has been unused for 3 weeks - got in it today, dead as a do-do. Nothing, no dim lights, just nothing as if it has no battery charge at all.

    Not even enough power to trip the lock on the bonnet compartment. Which is where my owners manual is.

    So, I have a dead car. Can't get to my owners manual. Don't know where the battery is on the car.

    Help?

    :)

    Paul you can also hook up a battery charger behind the passengers seat 4 (Phillips)screws hold it in. Its a little easier than the footwell as there is more room. There is an earth point and somewhere to connect your red power lead if that makes sense. Any problems give drop me a line
