mislock
Im getting a mis lock on the tourer , i know the drivers rear lock is knackered (got a replacement but not got it fitted yet ) ive manually locked the door but im still getting the toot and the light is on on the dash when running to say something is open
could it bee the bonnet ? the can had no bonnet switch in when i got it so ive put one in is there any way to tell what its seeing open ? Will it pass the MOT with the door open light on ? Thanks Carl

Only the hi line instrument pack (the one with the message centre in the top screen) indicates what isn't locked. Go round and check everything is closed properly and try again, I've had it where I thought everything was shut but the car didn't! The usual culprit is the bonnet switch but if that's been replaced . . . . when did the mislock start? Wasn't immediately after replacing the switch?

Try the rear window on the tailgate - it's almost always that or a boot mat stopping the tailgate closing properly
No, you won't pass the MOT with that going on. |

will removing the bonnet switch make the car see it as open or closed?

Mine passed last year as an advisory-the Mot guy left the rear window unlatched.....
