Video 97. How I charged my battery without access to the boot / trunk / luggage compartment. The battery is in the rear of the car on Jaguar XK8's. Access is through the luggage compartment / trunk lid. If the battery is flat the only way to get access is through the hidden keyhole. However, even this can jam and not allow access (recommend regular lubrication to avoid this problem). However, you can charge the battery from electrical points in the engine compartment. The hood / bonnet is released via a manual cable therefore can be accessed when the battery is flat. This video shows where I connected the charging leads. Please note do not try to jump-start the car this way as will result in damage to the vehicle. Only use this method for charging the battery.
