Can I Put Car In Neutral With Dead Battery. Exactly 3 tow companies came and didnt tow because of the neutral mode. Without power the electronic shift lock cannot disengage with the key in the ignition.
Youll have to remove the plastic plug toward the front of the shifter plate - shove a flat head screwdriver in the exposed slot - then shift the car into neutral. The parking brake does not require the vehicle to have electric power and should keep it. When the battery is dead in your car you cant get it to start by turning on the key and pressing down on brake pedal.
I recently left my lights on yeah - my bad and drained the battery mad.
If the battery is dead open the hood and locate the jump-start terminals. Yeah every car has that button next to the shifter. Car batteries can be dead for various reasons. To put an automatic transmission vehicle into neutral when the battery is drained apply the parking brake turn on the ignition switch depress the brake pedal and then move the gear shift to neutral.
