Location of "Open Hood" switch
Hello,
I am new here and seeking a help. Does anyone know where is the switch of "hood open" gauge? It is stuck on my dashboard as open which is not allowing me to keep my display choice on the dashboard and stopping me from using the remote engine start feature.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you roadfrog, but my problem is not opening the hood itself. What I need to locate I'd the sensor that tells me if the hood is open, which results in a note on the dashboard saying "hood open"

I just took my front cover off that surrounds the hood latch to see if I could locate the switch for you.
Unfortunately, from what I can see by following a wire that goes into the latch itself, it looks like the switch is inside the latch itself.
Which will make it hard to manipulate, and even to replace.

Was easy enough to do, and had hoped it would be a easy fix for him, once I could see where the switch is.
Unfortunately, that's not the case.
I was hoping it would just be a tab sticking up that gets pushed down when the hood is closed, but no such luck.

Yeah I never needed to be told my hood is open. if the part is expensive, it would be silly to replace.
