My battery died on my 1997 Audi A8, because I accidentally left my lights on. Now the car has absolutely no power and can not even open up the trunk anymore. So now I can't jump start the battery. I have been trying to find if there were jump terminals under the hood, but I can't seem to locate them. If you can help me with locating these terminals or some other way for me to get enough power to pop the trunk, it would be very appreciated
I TRIED THIS ALTERNATOR RED WIRE FIX TODAY,ALTHOUGH I DID GET IGNITION,WHEN I TRIED TO START IT BLEW A FUSE.ANYBODY KNOW ABOUT THIS.
Remove the bottom cover below the engine and connect a battery charger or jump box to the big red wire on the alternator. Ground to the alternator case or engine block.
Wait about 5 minutes - and try to pop the trunk. Then charge the battery as normal.

I bought this car used and only have the ignition key. Is this keyhole made for the ignition key or a specific trunk key?
Can not access the trunk from the inside.
I'm up for any ideas at this point.
Let me see if i can find a wiring diagram to check the colors of the trunk release.
Can you see behind the switch to determine the color of the wire??
if you're constantly running into this problem.... or want a backup for the future - there are chargers made to plug in to the lighter socket too.
can you access the trunk from the inside? (fold down seats)
If so, you can crawl in the trink and manually release the trunklid.
I can give you a way to jumper the trunk release using the wiring under the dash if you're up for it.
should fit both
there is a manual trunk keyhole on the underside of the top lip of the license plate opening.
