Havent used the mig for a while and battery has run down but had no chance to charge it over the weekend as I was working. Just came to jump start her and the door wont open with the key. Im sure that in the past when the battery was flat I have still been able to unlock the door manually because I remember the power-sounder going off. Am I being thick? ::) :-[

PS-just read some of "searches" for this and Ive tried turning the key and pulling the handle but doesnt want to know. Maybe I need to be more forcefull? :-[

Yes you do,turn key to unlock and while key held in that position under pressure try the handle,it should go :y

As Henry says, needs to go hard right and button may not allows pop up, hence the holding handle open bit.
If the lock has not been used for a while they do sulk, also try some WD40 in the Lock and key blade gentle working it around.

Thanks for the response Henry/Zirk. Just tried again and success ! :y---And she jump started starightaway too ! Guess you cant be too gentle with her, I remember when I changed the dash lights the cowl over the steering column was in the way and you had to force it down to get to the screw and I kept thinking Id break it. Still, many thanks for your help :)
