john1959:
left the car for 2 weeks not started for 2 weeks new battery new starter new everything cant open the car now tried openning manually it wont tried wd40 no good so how??

Nick W:
More explanation is needed:


Does the remote unlock the car?


Does the key work the locks? If you locked the car using the remote, then this takes a lot of effort.


Where did you apply the WD40 and why?


What was the reason for a new battery and starter?


Is the battery flat? This is most likely, and it being new is irrelevant.


A good battery should stay charged longer than 2 weeks, so if it is flat the car has an electrical fault.

You have to turn the key clockwise in the drivers door quite hard till you feel and hear it click, if battery not working.

cam.in.head:
as nick points out above.a good battery on an omega should stay charged longer than 2 weeks unless you have a battery drain.
in standard form you should still be able to start the car easily after 2 months !

Enceladus:
Turn the key clockwise in the drivers door past the vertical to approx two o'clock. The key might feel stiff. I've read on here that the door knob might not pop up, even so pulling on the handle should open the door.
