Dead Battery Doors Locked! - Land Rovers Only

dj_cobb · 11-28-2004, 06:32 PM

Does anyone know how to unlock a rover when the battery is dead? The super locking feature is stuck in place.

Call the dealer and good luck,

I recently had to "break in" to a Freelander @ a used car dealer as the battery was dead and the remote wouldn't unlock it. After thinking it over, I put the key into the keyhole & unlocked the door...............Good Luck, LRW

I was wondering about that, because I have a key hole in my drivers' door. It'a amazing how we get accustomed to technologies. I had a friend that had to rush to the store @midnight to get batteries for his remote, he looked at me a little odd when I sugested he change the channel MANUALLY!

Did you hear the one about the (insert suitably offensive racial or ethnic slur here) who locked his wife and kids in the car?

I laugh, because I probably would have done the same thing.

Remember, a jokes not funny unless someones offended!

Actually, people who can't come up with quality jokes to save their life have to resort to cheap laughs like Mr. Devynsdad. Oh well, I apologize for the stupidity of a small number of Americans. (The people of Connecticut aren't exactly the sharpest tools in the shed either.) But hey, we all still love our Discos so no hard feelings bud.

Generally, people with an infantile sense of humor combined with a room temperature IQ tend to try and belittle others in order to make themselves feel superior.

Now, URdiscovery, if you would like to get back to light-hearted discussion of Land Rovers and assorted miscellany, please continue. If, however, you are the type of troll who likes to redundantly post inflamatory comments because it makes you feel special, I think it would be in the best interest of everyone on the board if you would either grow up or shove off.

URdiscovery · 12-01-2004, 07:53 PM

I'm sorry, if insecure racist who has to make racial jokes to feel superior indicates maturity and being grown up, then I prefer to be immature and not grown up. I thought all Land Rover owners were classy, and still believe 99.9% are, so why don't you not let me down. Good Day Chap!

And I make the inflamatory comments...

Gotta love the rovers
Take Care everyone!

I think that you are taking my original post way too seriously. If I had been trying to post something that actually was offensive, I would have included a racial or ethnic slur. Since I didn't, I think it would be a reasonable conclusion to think that it was meant tongue-in-cheek. As the two posts prior to mine were humorous quotes, I thought that I might throw in a joke that everyone has heard in one form or another as s societal quote, if you will.

Since your sense of humor has obviously been stunted by too much exposure to political correctness, I doubt if I'll have much luck in convincing you of my intent. Since your attitude has also obviously been skewed by some other, unknown cause, I don't think I'll try.

URdiscovery · 12-02-2004, 07:25 PM

Well then, keep up your "tongue and cheek" humor and all the power to ya pal. As far as political correctness, you're talking to a white, republican college student who just bought a new land rover. I'm not too worried at all about political correctness, I think the politically correct liberals are more or less "out to lunch," I just thought Land Rover owners were classier than the people who make comments like that. If you had class you wouldn't stoop to the level of making comments like that, but hey, you probably lease. (Just joking buddy) Take care, and Rock on Jerry Garcia!!! (was that his name?) Hope this doesn't adversely affect our future, light hearted land rover discussions

. Take care pal.
