Adjusted the stops, so will give that a while,although the horn sounds once when setting the alarm,which means something isn't quite right still.
Thanks
Paul

Default Bonnet switch

New switch fitted, still tells me bonnet is open and the horn sounds still when trying to lick the car.
Is the bonnet switch on a separate part of the loom? , what I am hoping is it can be replaced easily if damaged.
Thanks

Paul

Hi Paul.
Open the bonnet hold down the bonnet switch or get someone to do it while you try and lock the car, if it works then you know that the bonnet is just not pushing down on the switch enough, check the locking latches are free and the half moon moves freely, if so then adjust the bonnet stays turn them in a thread at a time.
