Hi all, the last few days only every now and then the FF has been telling me the bonnet is open. I have checked it but it's not and shut sound.
If you drive off after 20/30 yards the dash clears and all fine for a few days.
On Sunday the car was on the drive and the alarm sounded, I opened and locked again but would not lock, just two bleeps and would not lock. Left her for 20mins locked fine and all good.
Any ideas ? Sticky bonnet sweat switch may be.
Thanks Dave

switch or latch....mine sometimes needs a further 'click' to make sure its fully closed... ... - .- -.

Thanks Stan, I will check it out.

The plastic bracket holding the switch may be broken allowing the switch to drop and causing the bottom on the switch to not be fully depressed. ______________________________

If I let my bonnet drop from about eight inches it latches fine. If I push it shut, the dash warning comes up once I start moving. Guess which method of closing it I use.

Thanks lads, I will check it out at the weekend, just finished work

I had the same issue on my 4.4 tdv8. I gave the switch a good spray with wd40 and no more issues.
