Best Answer

You should have a manual with the slim jim, it if very tricky to do, on electrial doors, be careful or u can pull the wires out. go in about 2 inches and should be a rod to pull up some you push, they are all different, did you get a wedge with your Slim Jim? You can roll window down leave it sticking up about an inch and place the wedge in the window spreading the door out a little so you can see inside of the lock.

When trying to unlock your 97 grand am by using a slim jim the first thing you want to decide is, do your locks go up and down or back and forth. This will tell you what direction you need to move the slim jim to get the car to unlock. The next thing you want to do is insert the slim jim under the rubber piece next to the door.

No. Once, I locked my keys in the car and the slim Jim did not work. The AAA guy ended up using a hanger-like thing to manually open the door. Another time the AAA guy used some sort of door "jimmy" (sorry, I don't know the name of the tool he used), which took <5 seconds.

How do you slim Jim a Buick Lesabre?

If it's electric you have to "pop" it from the middle, NOT from where the key lock is. CAUTION....CAUTIONOne needs to be VERY Careful about USING A slim Jim on some of the Later model cars (not sure if Buick falls in this category) which have air bags in the door panels. I'm told by the local police department that they will no longer do this to unlock a car. Another police department had a policeman killed when he inserted a slim Jim into a car door and hit the air bag mechanisim. The air bag exploded forcing the slim Jim upward through the neck and lower throat of the police officer....KILLING HIM.
