Bonnet switches + pop-up help
Hello, i've finally got time to try and fix my pop-ups so am going to check the bonnet switches before i buy a new relay. i just can't find them or even any reference in my haynes manual. please help - i understand i have to short the switches out?
Other info on the pop-ups i have:
When i take the relay out and short it the left pop up pops up.
When i bought it i manually wound the lights up and when i put the bonnet down the lights went down. not sure if that indicates anything - i guess it means that the bonnet switches might work.
Any help greatly appreciated. I'm new to the 480 world (got a '92 Red 480 1.7 ES) and am loving my car, just a few minor problems to iron out...

If your bonnet switch thinks it is open, you will get a door open warning on the dash.

took the car to Goodwins Auto Electrics in hall green Birmingham and they've sorted it. the owner before had chopped at the electrics in a crap attempt to fix the lights, the left light was shorting and he'd bypassed the bonnet switch to try and fix it. apparently.
still need a near side headlight lift motor if anyone has one...
cheers.
