[QUOTE="singlespeed, post: 157108, member: 264"] Firstly, pop the bonnet and press the bonnet switch (plunger between the expansion tank and bonnet latch). With it pressed, try locking the car. If it now sets correctly several times, its probably not meeting the bonnet correctly. If its still not working:- Remove the connector and see if both sides of switch and cable look ok The wire for the switch goes into the engine compartment relay/fuse box( the one which the bonnet support is stored on) In here, theres a small connector, loose where the switch extension goes into the loom. Make sure this is connected together. If you have a multimeter:- unplug the switch connector and try a continuity test across the switch to see if it is going open/closed. Check the black wire, going to the switch has continuity back to earth ( its grounded to FRONT LEFT-HAND SIDE MEMBER ELECTRICAL EARTH) Check for a change in voltage +12V to 0V across the switch connector white and black wires when setting the alarm [/QUOTE]
