Bonnet Will Not Open - Help

Hi Guys

My bonnet release handle has gone loose and the cable must have come away from the bonnet catch.

How can i open the bonnet??? Help

Oh to make matter even worse the reason i wanted to get in the bonnet is due to a flat battery Sad

Do you have a towbar? Plenty of folks on here trickle-charge their batteries via the towbar socket (not sure which pins, but a brief check would confirm).

I had the same problem thought the cable had snapped ended up working the latch handle back and forward then it got tighter and opened the bonnet sprayed everything with wd40 ok up to now.Can only put it down to the cable seizing with all the crud on the roads .
