Default Jump starting the V50

When I came out this morning, the remote would not unlock my car. I used to key in the remote to unlock it. When I tried to jump start it, the alarm kept going off and the key got stuck in the ignition. The alarm continued to go on and off for about 10 minutes, and the car would still not start. I finally got the key to come out of the ignition, but the electric in the car is still not working and it is still not starting. Is there some trick to jump starting these things?

The doors didn't open may have nothing to do with the battery. It could have to do with a broken door control module inside the front door or the connector having too much corrosion (which is a well known problem).

One of my friends has the same car and had the same issue a couple of months ago. He said that he has found all the needed information on the internet and that the problem was solved really fast. This article should help you otopartshop.com. However, there is a chance that the problem is not in the battery, and everything is much more serious. So, if you still won't be able to start the car, I would advise you to call some specialists.
