For a while now I have been having problems with the alarm going off on my 2010 TDV8, maybe once a week or once a fortnight. Yesterday I had the bonnet open warning come on after I had moved the car and the car would not lock, just the double chirp from the horns. Time to change the bonnet switch. I checked the price on Ebay then checked my local dealer price - no real difference in price. So I bought a new switch from the dealer. Upon opening the box I found it was a complete bonnet latch unit with a non removable switch.
The photograph below shows the original one on the left with the switch removed and the one right the new one with the non removeable switch.

After fitting the new switch the bonnet warning light still was showing and the car would not lock. I was not happy with the way that the loom connector plugged into the switch, it didnt engage nicely with a positive click when the locking tab secured the plug. I removed the plug a reinserted it with a bit more force. This required holding the plastic part of the switch so that it did not break off from the latch assembly.

LR have totally redesigned the latch assembly and they have still ended up with a substandard item which is no better than the original one.

Are you sure that the right hand one isn’t for an L494 RRS and the left one for an L320? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

The switch is the correct part number for all L320 models and Discovery 3/4 models (LR065340). It replaces the original design two piece unit.

With the cost of a new switch being so cheap it is not worth the agro of trying to make the old one work.

Dude just follow my tutorial..... you have to take it out either way so save yourself some cash.
