Fordster1 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 The car dash thinks the bonnet is open when it's not and the alarm goes off. Is the bonnet sensor integrated with the latch on the Mk3, does the whole latch have to be replaced? Can the sensor be bypassed by unplugging the connector and joining the wires together; or same thing by bridging the connector plug terminals with a bit of wire?

F0CUE Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 On the MK2 it was plugged into the bonnet latch area which had to be removed when removing the latch so I Imagine it would be similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Yes it's part of the latch. Yes you can bridge out the plug - but bear in mind the potential safety risk if the bonnet was genuinely left open accidentally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
