Part: Checks and maintenance

In this tutorial, we can see how to open the hood of the Porsche Boxster in case of emergency, for example in case of a completely discharged battery. First of all, we open the driver's door, then we locate the fuse box panel, located in the lower outer area of the passenger compartment, and remove it. We then remove the cover of the pillar by unscrewing the four fixing screws, locate the indicated cord and pull it towards us. At this point, we can move in front of the vehicle, fully open the hood and access the battery.
