When mine started acting up, regreasing catches didn’t help. It was only when I removed the cables that I noticed that on one section the drivers side cable had rubbed through the sheath and had started fraying. I’m glad I removed the cable to check, and subsequently replace the cable, as I had to open & shut the bonnet quite a lot after that, for various reasons!
Nothing worse than having a problem and not being able to get to it.
Best advice would be to strip out the cables and latches for inspection, and hopefully a re-grease is all that’s needed.
