Nissan micra bonnet won't open

Provided there is still resistance felt in the lever indicating that the cable is still intact have someone put one hand on the bonnet between the grill and the left head light and the other hand in the same place next to the right headlight and while pushing down on the bonnet in these two locations then have someone pull on and hold the lever up then release your weight from the bonnet and try pulling up whilst the person is holding open the lever, if it opens the two bonnet latches need lubricating.

Have a shop put it on a rack and look at the part is my best advice or post a picture of it.

Under the dash on the driver's side is a bonnet release. Pull the release towards the seat. This should release the first bonnet restraint.
Next, under the front of the bonnet is a secondary release lever. Slide this lever to the right and lift the bonnet.
On the right side of the engine compartment on top should be a prop rod for the bonnet. Put this into the receptacle hole on the bonnet.

I just opened the key and put loads of switch cleaner (you can get it for a few quid from Maplin's or similar). Good as a workaround, but presumably not a long term solution.

If the inside latch won't work, you'll have to reach up from underneath the hood to pull the lever over to open. Usually a flatblade screwdriver will help. The latch lever has to move towards driver's side to open.

push down the bonnet and then pull the lever.or sit on it otherwise you can with a screwdriver trhoug the vw mark and try to reach the mechanisme goodluck

Hi there, remember the bonnet opens back to front so you need to lift it from the windscreen side, hope this helps.

There should be a little plastic cover on the passenger door handle with an emblam of a key on it,underneaththis you should find the keyhole
