A long time ago .. a long time ago ... a ball with a pin hole in could, when squeezed - emit a high pitched frequency that could open a car door - occasionally.

Car thieves would go to a car park and 'squeeze' a ball to see if any car opened..

Those days have gone ....

2017 Lincoln Continental - How do you unlock the car with a dead battery?

Old school, try upper door frame with a fingers and then place a block to keep door from completely closing. Then, use a long close hanger to unlock door by pulling the inside handle outward.

Seen a trick with a tennis ball that has a 1 inch cut. you place the open cut over the door key cylinder and then with your hand, flat palm, slap the tennis ball hard against the cylinder. the air pressure should pop the lock to unlock.

2004 Audi A4 key locked inside

If your car has keyholes to external the try this trick..obtain a tennis ball and cut a half inch circular hole into it...place the hole over the key hole of the drivers door..and punch or force the air out of the ball into the lock...you might need to try this several times...the compressed air can sometimes trip the central locking .....also try from the passenger door.

Car alarm keeps going off for no reason. What do I do?

I had the same problem too. Everytime my tennis ball hits a car, the alarm goes off for 10 seconds to 1 minute and either times has the owner come out to see what the darn problem was. If he did come I'd just tell him I keep dropping the ball and also the ball just heads towards his car.

Locked my keys

If by "secret trunk latch" you mean "brick through window" then yes. Seriously though, you can look up the tennis ball doorlock trick on youtube but I don't think it really works. Call a locksmith.

MY CAR HAS CENTRAL LOCKING, BUT THE KEYS WAS LOCKED INSIDE HOW DO I OPEN THE DOOR?

This sounds stupid but it does work sometimes! Get a tennis ball, cut it in half, with as clean a cut as you can get, put plenty of grease on the cut edge of the ball to give you a good seal, place the ball above the door lock as centrally as you can and hit the ball as hard as you dare not to damage the body work. It's an old trick, but it creates a vacume on the lock causing it to pop the lock open. The alarm will go off, but you will have your keys back to turn it off. It used to work for me in the same cases, it's either that, or get the police to open it with a slip stick, it will open ANY car, but you have to have all your documents with you to prove ownership. Best Wishes Dave.
