SOURCE: 1995 jaguar xj6 dead battery and can't open trunk. please help,

I f it is like the XJR, the cig lighter is electrically switched and will not work. Find the hot point and and ground in the passenger side heelboard. The ground is two wires together scewed to the body an the hot point was a bolt attacted to a large wire and covered with a black rubber boot.

SOURCE: Battery Dead - Can't open the trunk to recharge battery. Help!

The 1994 xj6 sedan. The trunk should be opened by the key unless you have green keys only (valet keys).
If this is the case then open the hood and on the firewall there is a black plastic square box with a + sign on it, lift up the plastic cover, connect your jumper/charger on a low boost and this will give you enough power to push your remote trunk release switch.

check under the hood for a red cap over a stud looking rod, that would be your battery positive jumping rod, then just ground it to a suitable clean grounding spot away from any fans, belts or pully's

mine sometime does the same thing. try flipping your switch then pressing the button (this works for mine when it won't open with the key or just by pressing the button alone)

Battery is dead and trunk will not open with key

Either replace battery or hook up jumper cables, as if attempting to jump start vehicle, then try trunk release button.

My battery is dead,and i cant open the trunk,is there a way to jump the car without breaking open my trunk?

I'm not sure if your 93 will have this, but most newer cars with batteries located outside of the engine compartment will have a positive post somewhere in the engine compartment that will let you hook up jumper cables to. You would then hook the negative to a safe engine ground.
