Using the slim Jim with an electric lock car
We have described how to use the Slim Jim; this tool is both thin and rigid, which makes it possible to hook the locking rod inside the doors of automobiles through the seal of the window. This tool is very difficult to use in the case of an electric lock, because the risk of damaging the wiring present within the mechanical parts is such that the consequences would be even more expensive. In addition, some cars are equipped with armor whose purpose is to prevent the Slim Jim from reaching the famous ” sesame ” rod. In this case, this technique of opening locks without keys is totally impossible. Note that although we give you the solution here step by step, we do not really encourage you to apply the method.
Have the door wiring diagram
- It is essential to be aware of the wiring running through the door. In this regard, the best way is to own the vehicle manual or find these circuits on the Internet by checking the model and year of the vehicle.
- You need to have the thinnest Slim Jim available on the market and practice an opening between the rubber seal and the door window. Carefully drag the tool down.
- Circulate the Slim Jim carefully by looking for the locking rod. at the slightest obstacle, stop this work and check on the diagram if you stumble on a mechanical part (bar, screws etc.) or on electrical cable. In case of an electrical cluster, try to bypass by turning around in order to unhook it from the tool. Do not force any manipulation.
- Once the locking rod is reached and identified, pull or push or push to unlock the door. Be careful, in case of success, once the door is open carefully remove the slim jim without hanging a wire by winding it up.
