mercedes clk problem

[allforfun]

I have not used my clk for about 6 days now the battery has gone flat and i cannot get it the boot as the boot lock only worked on the button and remote as the key slot is broken any ideas how i can get to the inside of the boot or perhaps get power to the battery from under the bonnet somehow ? i cannot see any connections to connect to its a 1998 clk 2.3 sport many thanks in advance.

There is a way to put some charger on starter main positive or alternator main positive lead.
Don't know about power socket under bonnet on that model. Usually there is some under bonnet on Mercedes and it has red plastic cover marked with + .

i would not jump start a dead battery but power it to open boot and try charging battery,or fit a new one,blowing ecu is possible with a spike.

As Larue said there is normally a connection under the bonnet for car with betterys in boot that have flat batterys, its normally on the inner wings behind the stut top

yes its not the battery that is at fault its always had a problem if its not being used just seems to drain down after about a week normally its never left more than 3 days so has always been fine but becuase ive been ill have not used it so its completly dead now perhaps if i power a fuse central locking ? it may work ?

HAVE LOOKED FOR THAT BEFORE BUT COULD NOT SEE IT IF I GET IT OPEN TOMORROW THAT WILL BE FIRST THING I LOOK FOR.

Hello

Get the rear seats out and you can get to the Battery easily unless if your seat locks are sized than :banghead:......... or you can power up the Stater wire to operate you remote fob only............as said before by other members don't try to boost start with the Battery totally Dead..

Hope This Helps..

I know this is NOT the 230 but I cant see the jump-start terminal being in a different place
