If you want to get the bonnet open when the catch has broken and the is no cable to get hold of the Renault Grand Espace; use the screwdriver to PUSH the catch from right to left.
Left side of the car.
Get somebody to push on the bonnet whilst you are trying to pull lever. This should do the trick then lubricate all moving parts of the catch mechanism.
I do'nt have a picture,but the catch is under the dash on the left hand side of the passenger footwell.After this you also need to pull the catch on the front grille.
It will cost you a few hunderd quid to get this sorted by renault... or get some handy person to get the bonnet open, and using a cable tie connected to the passenger side bonnet release, connect said cable tie, and let the end poke out from the bonnet. This then becomes your new bonnet release. Any eagle eyed person with the knowledge will be able to open your bonnet from the outside. So do be wary of this solution. But it only costs a few pence for a cable tie vs a few hunderd quid from reno.
were is the bonnet catch on a citroen berlingo
Release the main bonnet catch on the steering wheel column. Push the bonnet catch in the front grill once and it'll come out half way, then pull the half out catch to open the bonnet.
The bonnet catch is in the foot well on the passenger side near the door but high up. Pull it to release the catch then put your fingers between the gap of the slightly open bonnet lid in the middle. You will find a small plate that needs to pushed up ton release the lid.
