Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi As the title says, the key fob doesn't open the bonnet. The red light on the dash will flash to indicate it's receiving the signal. The release works fine from the switch by the door. Any clues?

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ignore me. Might help if I'd read the manual!!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

You sound like my wife! It was the over five days sleep mode.
