The Silent Hill 2 garage jack needs a lever found in the garage just down the road, although you won't know that initially. You'll get two opportunities in the story to find this lever and use it to open the door, as you'll come back to this area twice as you follow the story - both before and after the hospital section. If you want to get inside and grab the loot inside either time, I'll explain exactly where to find the garage jack lever in Silent Hill 2, and what you'll get inside when you use it.
Where to find the garage jack lever in Silent Hill 2
The Silent Hill 2 garage jack needs a lever found to the West, from the sealed garage itself, down at Octanis Fuels. I've marked it on the map above for you to find and, once you get there, you'll see another jack holding up a green car. Take the lever from that jack and then head back to the garage so you can use it to crank up the door and let James squeeze through. It'll collapse after you do so but there's a regular door you can use to get out, locked from the inside.
Inside the garage, you'll find:
- 12x handgun ammo (scattered around in several piles)
- 1x health drink
- 1x syringe
- 1x Strange Photo Collectible: "made it! / #20"
- 1x readable newspaper about layoffs at Brookhaven Hospital
If you missed the first chance to open the garage after clearing the Silent Hill 2 Remake Pyramid Head boss fight and meeting Maria in Rosewater Park, don't worry - you return to this area later, at night, after Brookhaven Hospital, and have the chance to collect the jack again.
It's worth mentioning that if you head in the direction of Octanis Fuels the first time around, Maria will call after you as, to her, you appear to be going in the wrong direction. You can ignore her without any immediate consequence, but this is one of the many elements that determines which Silent Hill 2 Remake endings you get.
