Found this. Driver's side in front of the battery.

Stray Plug

It's very clean so seems to have been plugged in until recently. Wires are white\purple and black\purple.

Any ideas?

It connects to the bonnet open switch, or that is the plug on the bonnet open switch on the base of the RH bonnet catch, and somewhere there is it's dangling partner.

Are you getting a bonnet open warning on the dash?

He won't. Bonnet open is triggered by a short across that connector, so open circuit means it never tells you the bonnet is open even when it is.

Which was what I was wondering. No doubt the switch is fubar.

Are you sure that you want to perform this action? This action is irreversible.
