Help-locked out

[Jtodd64]

23 MME base model. Took the 12v battery out to replace it. Went to parts store to get a new one. While gone it started raining, so my wonderful wife closed the frunk so it wouldn’t get wet. Car is completely dead and locked up tight.
called a buddy at FD, they came out and tried double pull the inside latch. No luck.
they couldn’t reach the cable handle on the inside.
how much is a driver’s window?

Did you try the Frunk jumpers?

Sorry Jeff, no idea. However, assuming the '23 frunks are the same as the '22s, explain to your wife that the frunk has a drain so precipitation can flow out.

Actually, @NY_Cade69 is right. I forgot all about those. Should work.

I don’t have a power frunk

None of us have a power frunk from the factory. There is an electric frunk lid release though. The jumpers in the front bumper work only when the battery is gonzo dead or is not connected.

Ouch, I thought all frunk equipped Mach-Es had a power release...

Power release, yes, but you have to manually lift.

These jumpers only work when your battery is dead to release the latch, then you can lift the frunk, remove the trim and access the battery jump posts.

Double pulling the inside handle is a mechanical cable release...

Until the cable breaks!
