I am trying to help a friend of mine open her car. It is a 1993 town car. It has been setting for long time and now has a completely dead battery. When I turn the key in the door nothing happens and of course the push button does not work. Any ideas how I can open the doors or the hood? Thanks

is there not a key hole in the door? and did you try to pull some cables through the grille? i thought of that don't know if you can reach them though my grille has alot of space to send hangers and stuff though might have to break into the car:(

What happens when you insert the key into the key hole on the door?, its all manual so it should open right up.
