    Vauxhall Insignia message "Reset Bonnet"
    Hi all,
    I have just purchased a Vauxhall Insignia 2018 after accident, the bonnet actuators have been replaced and no fault codes showing on diagnostics but cannot clear message on cluster "Reset Bonnet, See Owners Manual"
    Anyone got any ideas how to reset?
    Thank you

    what diagnostic do you have? alot only display engine/transmission data, you probably need dealer level diagnostic.

          Thanks for reply, I don't no too much about diagnostics but the garage who checked it out had chassis/body etc. He seemed to think it would have been in the airbag faults but nothing showing

                    OP is saying no codes stored, think maybe needs better diagnostics tool. willsfair change your profile to show your location, someone local may be able to help.

                        Voilą - From the manual.

                        Pedestrian protection
                        system

                        Active bonnet

                        Pedestrian protection system can
                        help to reduce the injury of
                        pedestrians in case of a front
                        collision.

                        When the sensors in the front bumper
                        detect a certain impact within the
                        speed range of 15 mph to 31 mph, the
                        rear part of the bonnet will be lifted to
                        reduce pedestrians head injuries.
                        In addition the front bumper is
                        designed to reduce leg injuries of
                        pedestrians.

                        The active bonnet can be triggered
                        only once and remains in the raised
                        position. A message is displayed in
                        the Driver Information Centre.
                        Seek the assistance of a workshop as
                        soon as possible, thereby adapting
                        the driving style, to have the
                        actuators, hinges and bonnet
                        replaced.


                        Do not drive with the bonnet
                        raised.

                        After any frontal accident the front
                        bumper may appear to be intact,
                        however, the sensors may be
                        damaged. Consult a workshop to
                        verify proper functionality of the
                        sensors.

                        The system may not trigger under the
                        following conditions:

                        ● The impact is out of sensor
                        range.
                        ● The sensors are damaged or
                        blocked by accessory parts.
                        ● The bonnet is blocked by snow or
                        ice.
                        ● The vehicle speed is not within
                        the range.
                        ● The object is too small.

                        Manually bonnet lowering

                        After the system has triggered, the
                        hinges of the bonnet are hot. Do
                        not touch.

                        To manually lower the triggered
                        bonnet for driving to the next
                        workshop:
                        1. Pull the bonnet release lever.
                        2. Push the safety catch to left
                        vehicle side.
                        3. Open the bonnet approx. 20 cm
                        and lower it slowly without
                        engaging.
                        4. Push down bonnet with both
                        hands at rear corners in small
                        steps alternating between right
                        and left side.

                        Be sure to keep away from the
                        edge of the bonnet to prevent
                        injuries.

                        Not much help. Back to the dealer?

                          Not silly at all. The manual does not have any reference to it. I have had it looked at by a diagnostic specialist and it baffled him, all he could suggest was main dealer so looks like that will be my only answer. I will wait until first service is due and hopefully get it sorted then, Thank you
