Hi climb under the front of the car with a pair of pliers, reach up and pull the release.
Even if the trunk release is broken, the external key lock should be able to open the trunk.
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.
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.
make a hook out of a coat hanger. release bonnet from inside the car push hook through the slot the catch normally sits through lift bonnet and pull hook forward to release the safety catch hey presto your in lol
Because they are BROKEN
UK right-hand-drive. Small screwdriver and pull off front indicator. Use a long screwdriver and nudge the bonnet lock to release. It may make the job easier if you lever off the 7 spring clips holding the headlight glass, then pull off the reflector which holds the bulbs. Remove the black left-hand 4" circular black plastic cap and this will let you inside the engine bay and just grab the remainder of the cable to release the bonnet.
remove the left hand headlight it just pulls out and pull the cable from there if you still got some attached ok
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.
well u need to find the broken end of the cable that's still attached to the bonnet release then u need to pull the wire that is INSIDE the black insulation easy enough with a pair of pliers or vice grips but i suggest u fit a need a cable to save hassle in the future
You can do this buy removing the plastic front radiator grill. You need to remove indicator lights, then the middle screw, then with a small flat screw driver release the plastic clips just underneath the bonnet. Then put your hand behind the bonnet catch and pull the broken cable or the latch and it will open. Good luck
To open the locked bonnet, or hood on a 1999 BMW 525 TDS, pull on the release handle inside the vehicle on the driver's side. The hood might be indicated as open if the cable is broken or stretched.
