dead battery, cant get in car????
ok so i just got home today from a six month deployment...well i left my car with my buddy and everything was fine till last week when his dad moved the car....somehow he locked the car up and musta left the lights on or somehting...so now i guess when they try and unlock the car and open the door...theycant????
does anyoine know what to do??? is it because the window is sopposed to lower as you open the door, and with a dead battery it wont??
im going to go to his house tomarro and see what i can do but yea...i searched for this problem and couldent find anyone with it haha

My did the same thing after I came back form Deployment, but I lowed my window just in
case, along with the hood popped. My downfall was that I forget to disconnect the battery.

so we have the car sitting on a charger right now and we are going to retry it in the morning
lets cross our fingers!!!!!
P.S. after i got the car on a charger i tryed to lock and unlock the door with the key and it worked....so yes...the car does have to have battery supply for the locks to work.....

we tryed that for a lil while because thats what the nissan tech said to try....but we couldent get it...so after a tow truck (failed because we couldent get the car on the truck) and a locksmith ( couldent get the door open) we finally got a guy who knew what he was doing and got the door open....now i just cant get the car to start....i think the battery is just toast!

The key lock is not mechanical, it's just a key operated electric switch. I know because I just replaced the broken door handle/latch on my 04 350z. I was looking for an answer to the original question because my battery was almost completely dead...it did unlock the door but wouldn't even turn over the starter! I was thinking if I had let it sit a couple more days it would have been a big problem!
