Hood alarm sensor location....

[MT71]

I had my radiator replaced yesterday. I had a small leak at the bottom.
Since then, when I lock the card, the visual blinking of the direction lights is not working. I suspect something was not plug back correctly during the repairs.

After doing research, it seems that the hood sensor is often the culprit for these issues. I opened and closed all the doors, including the trunk and the hood without success.

Anybody has a picture/diagram of the hood sensor. Is it on the driver or passenger side. Any other info on this issue. Testing/troubleshooting wise.

Thanks.....Marc

car info would be of great help. then we can go from there, ie look on vadis . . .

It's on the drivers side. Replacement requires:

Removal of front bumper.
Removal of left headlamp assembly.
Removal of radiator support bolts on left side of support, and gently pull away the left side of the support just enough that it should allow you access to the left hood latch. [thumbup]

wow, quite a job.... I will let the dealer figure that out on my next visit.
