Bonnect lock switch sensors, or collision detection sensors (both sides of radiator) disturbed. Or bad luck and active bonnet actuator failed at same time. Fault codes would tell.

cheers, i have just taken the wheel arch liner out again as i was going to remove the bumper again and as i pulled the harness connector apart i noticed a broken wire, so have just soldered that up and all good again.... i look in the mirror and i see a muppet.....

good you found the fault Tony. You will
be sorted soon. Did you shrink wrap the wire.

Still got lots to do to it before I'll be happy with it, yes I've used heartstrings on the soldered joint.
