Porsche 911/996 Bonnet Hood Locked

A problem that I had with my 911 was that the bonnet/hood has an electrically powered release mechanism so the battery needs to be powered to release it. If the battery is dead for any reason there is a terminal inside the car where you can connect a power supply to reactivate the release switch however this relies on the continuity of the circuit. If the battery is disconnected then it won't work.

This video shows how to open the bonnet/hood if the battery is disconnected by using a release handle underneath the 911 wheel arch.
