So... I went outside to warm the car up yesterday morning. When I came back outside the auto door locks had activated, so the car was running with all the accessories on. Keys locked in the car meant I was locked out of the house too... fun times. Anyway, in my 5am panic, I thought if I could get the car to shut off that it maybe/hopefully would unlock. I put some vice grips on the fuel line and sure enough, it died. No unlocking though.
I called USAA and a couple hours later they came by and broke in. By that time, the battery had drained. I put a battery charger on it. This morning I tried to start it and it didn't even try to turn over. No clicking, no nothing. The accessories all worked. I put a voltmeter on the battery and it showed 12.7 volts.
Is it just the battery is toast? Maybe blew a fuse when I pinched the fuel line? Anything else I don't know about? Thanks!
