Hi Guys,

Quick question. The battery is flat on one of the companies smart cars. does anyone know where its located?

The cars about 10 miles away at the moment, and I don't want to get there and spend 30 minutes trying to find it. LOL

I tried google, but......

Thanks.

if its somwhere difficult, there should be a +ve battery terminal under the bonnet or somewhere else easy to get at.

Under the carpet of the passenger's footwell, under the foam block.

Passenger side footwell, under the carpet. Not the best place for easy jumping...

That's excellant. How the hell am I going to get a car close enough?? especially as the battery on the X5 is right by the windscreen!!

anyway. thanks for your help.

Put the Smart in the boot of the X5, worry about it later??

Take a spare normal battery if you have one and a pair of jump leads?

Why bother jumping it, you can get a pack of 4 AA batteries for less than 4 quid at your local supermarket!

I always found the back seat of a Capri was the best

Here, here, I used the wifes car to pop down the shop and buy a box of matches, sadly the box would not fit so I could only take a handful home!
