I've just had a quote from honda for £1713 for the same issue! Absolutely not a mark on the bumper, but they say someone must have revesred into my car whilst it was parked and it triggered the pop up hood warning. Seems absolutely ludicrous!! Anyone else getting this issue? I just can't believe that the slightest touch on the bumper can cause 1700 pounds of damage!

That amount is if the whole system activated. Tell them it is only the sensor to be replaced, because the hood did not pop up. They are just seeing wrong quotation price. It could be also the alignment, not even necessary to be replaced. But in order to know that, they still need to dismantle the front of the car so would cost you money anyway.

Hi, you need to run diagnostics on the car. It will give you a fault code. This will tell you where the problem is. I believe it's likely the airbag crash module. Also known as a airbag module. Honda will simply replace for brand new one in. However many people and companies simply can reprogram the module. It's located behind HDMI area. Also the struts of the hood may have been activated so will need to be reconditioned or changed.

hope this helps

You can try something like this, only off-road use approved or use at your own risk.

Usually, AUS and JDM market don't even come with this system only EURO spec cars (It's also useless as proved with EURO NCAP rating :lol: )

Hallo, falls noch jemand das Problem mit der Fehlermeldung hat: In meinem Fall hat wohl jemand mit einer Anhängerkuppung oder ähnlichen die Halterung des Sensors hinter der Kennzeichenhalterung verbogen.
Lösung: Kennzeichenhalterung abmontieren und mit zwei Fingern links und rechts den Haltebügel wieder gerade biegen.
Dann ist der Fehler verschwunden.
LG Patrick

Hello, if anyone else has the problem with the error message: In my case, someone with a trailer hitch or similar bent the sensor holder behind the license plate holder.
Solution: Remove the license plate holder and use two fingers to straighten the bracket on the left and right again.
Then the error disappeared.

Hallo,
das Blech bzw die Halterung auf dem der Sensor befestigt ist.
Die rote Markierung zeigt die Halterung im verbogenen Zustand.
Blau wäre der richtige Winkel.

Thank you very much. I will try it someday for sure because has been like that for 3 years.

Das ganze dauert maximal 10 Minuten.
Viel Erfolg!
