Also put it on vcds couldn't get into the wiper part as is a copy and not live but did get into the forced testing which I was able to turn on the washers with the laptop and off again but with the wipers it it just said off and you couldn't change that

It's just the bonnet lock that's held by toque screws that needs replacing  :smiley:
