If you have the later electronically operated mechanism, you can plug a 12V backup battery into the cigarette lighter, or connect jump leads from a good battery to the connector in the fuse box by the drivers left foot or even to the charging point on the right side of the engine. Finally, if none of those work, pull out the wheel liner for the front passenger wheel well and up by the back of the headlight is an emergency cable operated mechanism. There are literally hundreds of solutions to this problem all over the web, check rennlist, renntech, pelican or any other Porsche website for a detailed DIY When I start car the radio turns on even when I shut radio off when I shut the car off.

Basically, use jump cables to connect neg to the door catch striker on the drivers door aperture, and the positive to the special terminal that pulls out from the fuse box.Not sure if the problems are related as I was assuming the bonnet problem was mechanical. Anyway back to the battery problem, I have searched battery problems and you mentioned in this thread Proline started, attaching a jumper cable to a terminal in the fuse box to open the bonnet, I have the fuse instructions with me at work and there is no mention of the terminal to connect to, the car is a 99 model, should this have the terminal. Unfortunatly the car is at home and I am at work so can't do anything. Any suggestions. If you don't have the terminal in the fuse box there is another way described here: 7.9 Accessing the Battery when it is Dead The Boxster has a minor difficulty. http://www.dreamscar.eu/userfiles/braun-tassimo-1200-manual.xml

If you have the alarm and the battery goes dead, you cannot open the front trunk to get to the battery to jump start it. There have been three techniques discussed for entering the front trunk when this problem manifests itself. There is a Porsche Technical Bulletin describing one way that works for entering the car. A description of what one owner did to construct the device mentioned in the bulletin is shown at. It may work that a cigarette lighter to cigarette lighter jumper cable will power the car enough to open the car. This has not been confirmed to work, though. Make sure that you carry the jumper cables in the passenger section of the car, otherwise you won't be able to get them when they are needed. Inside the top of the driver's front wheel well, just aft of the spring coil mount, is a little rectangular corner in the black plastic shroud that lines the inside of the wheel well. Too thick for an electrical wire (and not in a harness anyway). Now tug this cable gently out from behind the shroud and get a good grip on a loop of it. Now pull hard away from the headlight once, and prepare to hear the music of the alarm as the front hood pops open. Grab a 10mm wrench and take off one of the battery cables to silence this thing until you can get your key in the ignition and disarm the thing. Disconnect the alarm horn, re-connect something with power to the battery leads, and unlock your car. Note. Disconnecting the battery will not silence the alarm on UK cars. It has it's own battery backup. - MarkTimbo Yes they are - on all models. See point 3 in my post above.I tried to find the emergency cable last night, I loosened the front end part of the inner liner to look for the cable but no sign of it, your info tells me it at the rear end of the liner, so I will try there. The car was on a sloping drive so I didn't want to risk jacking it up, I have dragged it onto the road now so I will be able to take the wheel off. http://www.dimecal.com.br/arquivos/braun-syringe-pump-manual.xml

I'll also try the electrical method in the bulletin, but not sure how you connect a jumper to both sides of C3 fuse as its embedded in the panel. Our car definitely doesn't have a pull-out terminal in the fusebox to connect a jumper lead to, must be a later Boxster thing. Thanks again.That's where mine is, but my guess is that early cars may have the release cable in the passenger wing, and later cars (with the electric release) have it on the driver's side. Just a guess. Idon't think I'd want to go through it twice its bad enough trying to get into the boot on a 944S2 Haven't had time to take the wheel off yet, I stopped off at Silverstone Porsche this afternoon on my way past, I asked if they could show me where the cable was, 1st mechanic took me to the passenger side of a newer 986 (with electric buttons, no levers)and said its inside the inner liner between the inner wing and headlight, 2nd mechanic said it can also be on the drivers side in the same position, WTF !!!. I won't get time to take the wheel off until Friday or Saturday now. I have thought of another solution. Cars after MY01 had electric release buttons for the boot lids in the drivers door sill, prior to this they were mechanical levers which lock with the central locking - if your battery ran flat with the car locked these will still be locked. There should be instructions on the fuse panel cover in the driver's footwell. Older cars have the manual levels in the drivers door sill to release the boot lids. Picture 1 looks forward into the gap between the levers. The second picture is an enlargement of the gap. The drawing hopefully shows what you see when you are looking into the gap. Looking forward into the gap you will see a metal plate that has a U-shaped cutout. You will see that a part of the handle sits in this cutout. The locking mechanism is a plate that rotates underneath the U-shaped cutouts thus preventing the handle from moving. https://www.thebiketube.com/acros-02-mercury-sable-owners-manual

To unlock the lever you rotate the plate out from underneath the U-shaped cutouts. It is easiest to do this under the trunk release lever. You reach in with a thin screwdriver or an awl and push the plate from right to left. This unlocks both levers. It is hard to do because you cannot see what you are doing or where the locking cam is. Get a strong light and a small thin blade screwdriver. The screwdriver must be at the angle in my pic since that is where the cam is. The cam is horizontal and rotates side to side. I forget which direction you rotate the cam to unlock the levers - it is either left or right. Stick the screwdriver in so that the tip is on the cam then try to rotate the cam. You can only move the cam a little bit at a time. Take the screwdriver out once in a while and see if the lever pulls up. If that does not work then try the other directiion. This is the levers removed from the door sill. Yellow lines are to the locking cam that you need to rotate out of position if that is the problem. If you give up then you have to go for the emergency release cable !. I always thought a basic principle was 'KISS' (keep it simple, stupid!). These days, it seems that, all too often, Porsche goes the extra mile to make things complicated. Things like boot and bonnet lids don't need expensive engineering, especially when users have to take such ridiculously complicated action to overcome problems! I thought I'd got rid of the worst of such potential difficulties when I gave up a 928S4 for a 993, but I seem to have stumbled right back into the area with my move to a Boxster. I enjoy the car and its performance, but I've seen so many reports of problems like this one that I'm seriously wondering whether to swap out to something less complicated.This means that you can release the latch lock and open the hood. In the US the front emergency release cable is always on the passenger or right side, no matter the year. http://abqwinair.com/images/boxster-automatic-vs-manual.pdf

Problem is the cable is not always where it should be, and may be impossible to find unless you remove the headlight. More so if the car has had body work because the shops don't know what the cable is for or where it belongs, and I have seen cables stuck in places you could not get to even with the plastic fender liner off. On UK messages boards most say the cable is on the left or passenger side, but once in a while someone says it is on the right side. I thought it was too much beer. But maybe Richard has a clue. Maybe which side the cable is on depends on the year for a UK car, if the car has a mechanical or an electrical release. 1997-2000 is mechanical and 2001-2004 is electrical. We had a recent Boxster tech session at an independent garage. The owner said that for cars with the mechanical levers he disconnects the solenoid that operates the cam that locks the levers in the down position when the alarm is set. He considers this feature of the alarm system a design defect. He has a point because you can't lift up the levers when the door is closed anyway. So locking the levers with a solenoid operated cam when the alarm is set is sort of senseless since the door has to be closed to set the alarm.

I think I have attached a photograph to show it. Kind regards Gerry I think it let’s you open the frunk if the battery is flat but hopefully Richard or a n other expert will be along soon to confirm or deny. I'm assuming that this lever allows you to override that if the central locking packs up or the battery dies. Cheers Gerry Are there pull levers to release the bonnet and boot in the event that the central locking fails. So many questions but I do appreciate your help. Regards Gerry Many thanks for the time you have taken to show these and add pictures, i appreciate it. Cheers Gerry If it is has mechanical release, it is on the passenger side. In both cases, the rear lid emergency pull is on the passenger side behind the rear light. (RHD). There, that's told everyone how to break in to a 996. Of course, the alarm will go off if it is locked. This saves jacking the car up, releasing the wheel and removing the wheel arch lining. On the 997 the emergency front lid release is in a different place. Passenger side, behind the wheel arch liner, near the front, and lower down. The Club assumes no responsibility for any effects arising from errors or omissions. Information can be obtained from the operator or the white pages. And, yes, the rest of the car was locked, too. I knew that there was an emergency bonnet release hidden inside one of the front wings, its main reason being to allow access to the battery in the event it goes flat and the electric release won’t operate. The problem was, I wasn’t sure which wing, as it has moved around since the device was first used on the early Boxster and Porsche 996. The obvious solution, then, was to Google the problem, which led to this lengthy thread on Pelican Parts. The advice from this thread was to remove the relevant front wheel to gain access to the wheelarch liner which then needs to be removed. Good idea, but the locking wheel-nut key was inside car which, of course, was locked. www.dqnjl.com/userfiles/files/canon-pc150-copier-manual.pdf

I was tired, so I took the easy route and called the AA. Within an hour, a shiny yellow van was on the drive, and I was delighted to see that the driver was Sam, the father of one of my son’s friends, a chap I know well, which made me feel slightly less embarrassed. The AA use its own onboard computer system and Sam looked up Porsche Boxster but the information offered wasn’t comprehensive and there was some confusion as to whether it was referring to the front or the rear luggage compartments. I brought my MacBook out and had another search and came up with this thread on Planet 9, started by the owner of a 2006 Porsche Cayman, who’d locked his keys in the boot. Silly man! The thread confirmed that in the case of the Porsche 997, plus 987 Boxster and Cayman, the emergency bonnet release is located in the left-hand front wing, and access is gained by removing the liner and reaching in. It included a very clear photo showing the location of the release, which I’ve taken the liberty of borrowing: Removing the liner was tricky with the wheel in place; I did suggest jacking up the car but Sam pointed out that would set the alarm off and the neighbours wouldn’t appreciate that. He did, though, manage to unfasten the securing screws and pull back the liner enough to get his hand in. The cable didn’t have a loop, as I’ve seen on 996s, but rather a bobble like the end of a bike brake cable. This meant using a pair of pliers to grip the cable and pull it. As soon as Sam did this, the bonnet popped open and the alarm went off. I quickly opened the lid, grabbed the keys and disabled the alarm. Job done! UPDATE I’ve just had a chat with a 996 owner who was locked out of his car. He took off his left hand wheelarch liner and couldn’t find a release. However, he found one in the right hand arch. So, if you can’t a release under one arch, then take a look under the other side. {-Variable.fc_1_url-

I became very adept at this with my 996 as the battery would flatten while I was working away. What was wrong with the cable release, if it’s not broke don’t fix it. I expected better from Porsche.I too have had this problem. Best way is to get a cigarette lighter to cigarette lighter (of a doner car) and put some charge in the battery that way. It works a treat. Much easier than fiddling around with the fuse box or taking wheels off. Philip 4 Mar 2017 Reply Thanks for the reply. Did you know there’s a connector in the fusebox in the footwell that also allows you to connect a 12-volt supply for releasing the boot lid. Dick 1 May 2017 Reply I managed the dedicated terminal route and have since been looking for the Bowden cable. I found a small spliced loop around the plastic tube within which is the solenoid operated release. I have taken a picture Dick Mark Lockie 13 Jun 2017 Reply Thanks for all this information. Any advice much appreciated before I start poking around. Philip 14 Jun 2017 Reply Hi Mark I don’t see why it shouldn’t work without the battery connected. Best thing is to give it a try; it would be much easier than accessing the emergency release under the wheelarch. Good luck! ken steadman 21 Jun 2018 Reply On a similar theme. I recently purchased a 2003 Boxster S, been experiencing problems with alarm activation using key fobs (with new batteries) thus using manual key access. MOT is due mid-July and my plan was to have a full service and the alarm sorted at this time. Spent a few weeks away, battery flat on my return. http://www.musicmaestrodiscos.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1627ed30a11877---brother-printers-dcp-165c-manual.pdf

Tried the positive connector in the fusebox with donor battery, immediately I earth on the door latch the alarm is activated, also both the driver door threshold switches didn’t work during the alarm sounding. The special wheel nut adaptor is in the boot!!!! thus it appears I am left with fishing around under the front wheel arches for a pull wire. Don’t understand why alarm is so loud but not enough juice to open the front lid. Any further ideas on a way forward Philip 21 Jun 2018 Reply Hi Ken That’s an odd one. If you can bear it, it may be with worth leaving the power supply connected for a few minutes to see if the alarm stops. Also, is your donor battery well charged. If not, it may not be giving enough power to operate the bonnet release. Worst case scenario is to get your breakdown service out to do the fishing around for the pull wire. Good luck! Philip ken steadman 22 Jun 2018 Reply Thanks Philip My donor battery is starting a 1.9 diesel golf so should be adequate. I’ll try letting the alarm complete a cycle, not too sure how long that takes. If no joy I’ll have a grope around for this elusive pull wire, though having fitted a new washer bottle under a wheel arch with the wheel removed a few months back, it’s not the easiest job to access the liner panel fixings with the wheel on the car. Thanks again for your quick response Robert Sheppard 31 Jul 2018 Reply Thanks for this post, You just saved my life. After a heavy storm the windows on my 987 had gone down and the spoiler and roof cover were up. There was a blockage in one of the drain holes which had obviously caused the ecu to stress out. So, I decided to disconnect the battery and as it looked like it was going to rain I cleverly shut the bonnet. I thought nothing of it until I went back to see if it had dried itself out and then (you know what’s coming next), it dawned on me what I’d done. domainersuite.com/ckfinder/userfiles/files/canon-pc1438-user-manual.pdf

Thank god your post came up, although it was a real fiddle, I managed to remove the cowling with the wheel still on (as the locking nut is in the boot). Yanked on the cable a few time (you have to yank it hard) and hey presto. I won’t be doing that again!! Philip 31 Jul 2018 Reply Thanks for your message. Glad this helped! Dawn 11 Aug 2020 Reply when this happened to our 20 Boxter we got a cloth and and screwdriver, whilst one pressed the internal release, the other leveraged the front and it popped open. Unfortunately had already fiddled about taking off wheel arch covers and fishing about for the cable, but at least know for next time.
