Hello,
Probably like everyone else the rubbers parts on their puma are disintegrating after 20 years (or it could just be mine). Anyway my door light is flashing a lot when driving. I have traced it to the bonnet plunger the rubber concertina boot is falling apart so this is likely the issue (containments getting in and causing corrosion/concertina is jamming plunger open slightly). What I what to do is take it out (with the aim of getting a replacement at the local scrap yard). So far this is defeating me there are 2 rusty steel clips (probably it the same piece of metal) when I push these in I am able to pull the plunger unit up about 1-2mm but no further. (I think it has to come up as there is a piece of black plastic which is too big to go down through the hole).
Does anyone have so guidance on removing the Bonnet Plunger from the Puma?
Thank You,
Mike.
