no extra chromosome here lol the battery I just dead

Thanks for all your ideas but I don't really wanna cut anything on the car so I'm just gonna call a locksmith. I'm sure they can come out and get a key made with the lock still on the car. It is 2014, they must have the technology by now haha

If that doesn't work, I'll probably just take out the taillight or something. Hopefully I don't have to resort to that.

Ah easy then, assuming trunk lock works just pop the hood, connect a jumper negstive lead to a ground and positive to the junction box near the passenger firewall.

Pull the lock from the drivers door up and should also trigger the trunk lock to unlock.

could be double locked
battery could be dead
op could have an extra chromosome.
so many possibilities


op plz respond

[ThatOneEuroE30]

We really could throw ideas around all day but until
Op gets back with more info we are clueless

[FLG]

Reason why I figured he was double locked, if he wasn't, pulling up the door lock would also unlock the trunk.

Def need more info here.

I don't think the OP ever said it was double locked. He said the title was locked in the trunk, and he couldn't get to the tumbler in he door because of the glass. I assumed he already had the door card off and tried to get to the tumbler, and found he wasn't able to do so. Unless we get more info from the OP, powering the window motor to get to the tumbler sounds like the path of least resistance. Regardless, a door card is probably the most acceptable loss if damaging something is required.

Alternatively, if it is double locked, and he can't get the doors open, he could smash through a tail light to get the title in the trunk, and order a new key. Tail lights are easier to match than a trunk lid or door card.

Seriously?

Battery + some intelligence = rolling up window.

/end thread.

I guess you didn't bother reading anything else?

If the door is double locked rolling up the window isn't the issue. It's getting the door panel off with the door closed.

You can also roll up your window with an allen wrench. 4mm I believe? It's under a plastic cover on the window motor.

But it'd be easier to trigger the power lock system, look up an aftermarket keyless entry system install manual to see which wires to hook up to a battery. (never done it, sounds good in theory tho)

[MyE30]

Roll a window back up? Pop a switch out and use some leads to power the motor. Should only take a few minutes with a wiring diagram and a few feet of wire.
Once a window is up, pop out the lock tumbler.

(You could also trigger the lock solenoids by tapping into a harness somewhere, but the window is probable easier and quicker to figure out on the diagram.)

^This. Why would anyone recommend to cut anything? OP's windows are rolled down so the OP can get the door cards off. Am I missing something or is there something special about the vert?

i actually bought the kit and just built a brand new driver side lock from scratch, i used a whole bunch of grease so i think i should be good for a while.

No problem. Lube up your locks good, they tend to get very hard with age and things start breaking Lol.
