Title: Don't Do What I Did....
Post by Paul B on Feb 22^nd, 2006, 8:07pm

I did something a bit silly last night.

I had a flat battery, totally dead, wouldn't start or do anything in fact.

So, out with the JumpStart pack thing. No problem at all usually but...... I'd left the keys in the ignition.
And as soon as I connected the leads of the jumpstarter, the alarm armed and the central locking locked up! >:(

Luckily, I had spare keys indoors.
Even luckier, I'd left the front door open - my front door key was dangling in the ignition with the others! :-[

My advice...?
Don't go leaving your house unlocked, but if you're doing a similar thing, have your keys in your pocket!

Did that with my old Audi 80 , even locked my Mobile in the car , had to call out the AA from a callbox.

Great what they can do with a bit of wire and plenty swearing :-*
