-99 sedan DeVille, Locked out

[Göran W]

New to me but looking to buy.

Fob won´t unlock the doors. Door key not existing. Don´t know if battery (car and fob) is good. Ign key known to work fine.

Please! Any fast ideas on how to get in?

Have the owner call roadside or locksmith to open it. 

All 4 doors are locked?

Likely battery is dead on car.

I don´t know if he has tried anything. There is no insureance for the car. This car only has two doors - pickup. ;-) Powerlock kicked in on its own.....

Is there a way to open the hood from the outside?

Yes, I have opened the hood on a 90 Seville but is is not easy. You have to work from the bottom to gain access to the release. 

I had a hoist/rack to work with, I can't imagine how much MORE difficult it would be without a lift.

OOps I was looking at your car not the heading on the post. 99 is the same difficulty, same approach. You will learn new words before you're done.
