I am glad you made this video. I checked my work after putting a new bulb in, but in my replacing of what needed to be removed, I failed to make sure ALL plugs were plugged in. When i saw this vid, i went to the spot and it was plugged in but following the wire harness down found a plug that was not completely plugged in. BAMM! Fixed a problem that would have costed me over $200. Thnx
Thank you so much, I'm going to have to check to make sure it's connected, since my car got hit in precisely that location, and every since then, I get the "Hood Ajar" warning light.
If your switch is bad and you don’t care or am waiting for money to buy a new one. Just run a jumper across the plug. This will show the computer it’s closed until you get your new switch. I’m about to go double check mine after converting to LEDs.
Thank you so much I went to a mechanic shop to replace my radiator and for that you need to take the bumper off and when they replace the radiator and put everything back together that error of the hood appear, maybe they didn’t connect the connector right or left it unplugged
Hey Nick, do you know which could be the part number for the hood switch wires, I was in a car accident & those wires are missing. Now my car says that the hood is open.
Yeah also a big pta is when it goes off when the hood is closed very common problem that’s a defect with these cars. Ford has no fix but to charge over $200 to fix the sensor that’ll work for maybe 2-3 weeks. Also on the 2013 fusion titanium. FORScan can NOT turn off the hood sensor it’s not available on the menu options.
Hi would this be the same problem on a FG 2009 falcon? I have a factory alarm but I cant see any connection to bonnet latch but I keep getting the bonnet ajar warning on my dash every 30 seconds while driving. Bonnet is closed. Any ideas would be great. thanks.
Hood closed fine .then right before I bought the car and picked it up,,the seller had the front bumper changed Now the hood don't latch on driver side and hood ajar message is on Any recommendations ?? its a 2016 fusion
@@Nickthecarguy I just loosened the bolts on latch and raised the latch all the way up and same thing Wire harness is plugged on the latch but not sure in the bumper yet .would that cause the hood not to latch or thats just for the hood ajar light on the dash It's confusing because it closed fine before the bumper was changed
@brianromero9995 only other thing I can think of the bump stop on the corners where the headlight at I wonder if that set too high you can screw them down and it should allow the hood to close more
@brianromero9995 what I mean by the bump stop is this www.ebay.com/itm/185824049739?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=oxlw2fmaqx-&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=MjZ31FyeR62&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=FB

There is a harness that branches off of the driver’s side fog lamp harness. A sub harness go from it to that driver’s side hood latch/switch.
Super helpful without unnecessary content. Thank you!

@@Nickthecarguy OK cool I will try that and see what happens
Thanks so much for responding back
Thanks!
Hi is there a fuse dedicated to the hood sensor
Not that I'm aware of for this vehicle
2:24 disable it with what now?!?! lol (caption said “foreskin”)
7 and then 8mm. Mouse ate my wire. God i hate this car. now the latch wont open with the yellow handle .
A mouse ate your hood latch cable ?
@@Nickthecarguy no the wire that says it's open
@@Nickthecarguy for no reason it won't open after I took off the bumper. I never even touched the latch
@@Chris-go9ti could a clip be jammed in there or a bolt
Same thing happened to me, trying to fix it
