Front bonnet release on 997

[Deano997]

Hi,
When I press the button at the side of the drivers seat to release the front bonnet nothing happens. The rear engine cover button works fine. Can anyone help? Could it be a fuse blown somewhere?
Thanks.

Can you hear the motor working but no hood 'pop'? Cable might have snapped, easy fix, £50 part.

Fuse first then, if still no joy then maybe motor has gone, same part as cable as it comes as one unit.

There's a small white piece of plastic inside the button which may have broken or been dislodged! It had in mine and I replaced the twin switch unit and job done within 10 minutes. although the part cost about £70 !
