Ohh man. That sucks!!!!
Sorry i don't know of any other ways,
apart from door prising. The AA or RAC can do this. But its not to good for your door and frame.

the key will (if used in the locks) override the deadlock.Corey

yeah...as above. Using the key manually in the lock should work shouldnt iot??? or is that what your saying....they are deadlocked meaning you cant manually undo them?Originally posted by madS2Have a big time problem!!My battery dead on my S2 and i cant get into the car as i think its a deadlock system??Anybody know of an alternative to either smashin the window or ragging the front grill off?Cheers.
If it for some reason doesnt work try the passenger door and then the boot...
if it doesnt get you in...
Worst case scenario call a locksmith out who will do the minimum if any damage to your lock...meaning you may well not have to replace anything...

the door dont have a frame does it,erm lets see,you need a real long wire coat hanger to go to the bonnet release lever,it should go between the window and the seal if ya careful.leave the hook on the end and you should be able to get the bonnet open1990 100 2.2 10vqt 82k miles(now dead)

IIRC this happens when an alarm with remote locking is fitted, it either disables the key's ability to unlock the door as normal or, the lock mechanism seizes up from lack of use, anyone seen the vid of the blonde with the guy talking her through how to use the key to open the door? or something like that..
Anyway.. A wire coathanger through the grill and hook the bonnet release wire?
Battery to the back of the alternator or starter should do it though..Comment
