Interesting, perhaps related issue today. My father's 2000 996's battery went dead after not driving it for maybe 2 weeks. Typical issue with hood latch and dead battery. Tried in vain to charge it enough via the cigarette lighter to release the hood, although the lights would come on bright in the car, and the engine lid would release. We then found the cable and released the hood manually, replaced the battery. Yet: the hood release lever is still "stuck" despite power, with the car running, etc. IT WILL NOT RELEASE!!?? Any ideas? Could the servo be bad, or is there some ritual to repowering the car after a dead as hell battery (needed radio codes, etc) to get the trunk release lever to work?
