Land Rover Hood Sensor
My Land Rover recently began experiencing a new problem. Luckily, some googling found it to be a known issue and I found many tips for solving it. The symptoms I had were: the alarm would sound randomly (when it was set). Also, sometimes the dash text display would indicate that the hood was open "BONNET OPEN". Apparently this is because the hood sensor goes bad. It's connected to the passenger side hood latch at the front of the truck. 10 for shipping. I found forum posts indicating that it takes about 30 seconds to swap it out. Unfortunately, I'm not the most mechanically inclined, and I cannot figure out how to remove the sensor. Maybe I need to remove the latch. For that, I'd need to buy a new tool, since none of mine fit those holes in the mounting bolts. Instead, I decided to do what other forum posters had done, short the circuit at the connector. Below is a photo of that connector. I merely connected the two contacts with a wire, then taped it up with electrical tape. I figure I can easily undo that and install a replacement sensor, once I figure out how to do that. I also might take it to the dealer and have them fix it. 100 deductible I'd have to pay. Here are some links, but they're likely to dry up given the obscure topic. LR Forum Threads: Thread1, Thread2, Thread3. The part number is LR002794. This part appears to be superceded by a new part number: YUE500150. Here's that part for sale on an online parts outlet: hood sensor part. I've posted photos here. Also, I noticed that the link above to the sensor part at an online store leads to a puzzle.

Doing the EMT would be a longer ride and I didn't feel up to it in the humidity so I headed down Chinquapin to the Eucalyptus Loop where I took a break at the picnic table. On a clear day from the picnic table you can see some 60 miles to Pacific Grove across the Monterey Bay. Anywho after deliberating and seeing the downhill had cooled me off a bit, I was feeling better I decided to take the EL down to Old Cabin Trail and hook up with the Wild Boar. Here is the junction of the EL and OCT plenty of ruts on the way down! I felt good I didn't crash in any! The trail disappears into those woods and goes down into a creek bed and then you climb out the other side, very steep on both sides. It was some 10 degrees cooler down in the bottom. Going up the other side there is my favorite part of the park.
