look, the battery is in the trunk. the trunk will not open. the lighter turns off with the key,it will not charge anything.there is no battery posts in the engine compartment. the starter is a fully sealed unit. the solution is to call a locksmith, or to phone mer. benz for a secret solution. thanks for all the ideas
There is no such thing as a sealed starter. every starter known to man has an electrical connection on the outside otherwise it could not operate. You did not locate the starter, and if you did, you did not look carefully enough at it or you would have seen this.
I believe I tried this one before, but another way into the electrical system aside from the lighter is to run a jumper to the starter main terminal (without grounding it anywhere else) use second jumper to ground)
(Unless there is a set of "jumper terminals" in the engine compartment I don't know about) Many lighters are hot all the time, if not, it's not as convenient, but the second way will also work.
