Okay... so currently led in bed, it’s like 4am here so I can’t do anything about it at the mo but we just woke up to the sound of an alarm going off. Looked outside and all 3 cars seemed fine, no lights flashing or anything. I went downstairs to check regardless, picked the keys up and hit unlock on the supra, nothing happened. No lights, no folding mirrors, no unlocking. It’s minus 3 degrees C so a little snow on the car and frozen over hence it’ll have to wait til morning (proper morning, there is only one 4 o clock I should be seeing in a day!)
although the car gets driven very little, I did take the car out on 27th so only like three days ago, fifteen miles or so/half hour each way so should be enough time to charge and I’ve had no signs or indications that the battery has been low.
anyways... I went outside and walked to the other end of the driveway so the car was behind me to see if I could distinguish where the alarm sound was coming from. The siren was so loud I couldn’t tell if it was the supra or not! Weirdly I touched the bootlid/trunk (don’t see the relevance) and all of a sudden the siren stopped after a few minutes of going off...
anyone had a similar issue or can shed any light on this? And if the
battery is dead, how do I access it to try and charge it as the boot release won’t work being electric powered?
