Hi I have a 1999 C CLASS SALOON C230K Sport 4dr and my battery has died and have no power to central locking which is not functioning and unfortunately boot lock will not operate manually with key (seized). I was told I could put jump leads on body and ? to pass just enough current to power up central locking and open boot to replace battery but not sure where to connect leads any advice much appreciated
 
Hi,
If you look under the bonnet you will find a rectangular black plastic box about 2 inches by 1 inch, its on the passenger side just behind the washer bottle mounted on the inner wing.
Pry cover off to expose terminals, these are both positive, put +12V on one of these and -12V onto the chassis, operate the boot release, Do not be tempted to jump start the car through this point.
