How to Open the Bonnet on a Ford Transit Van?

Model: Ford Transit MK 7 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Body

In this tutorial, you will see how to open the bonnet on a Ford Transit van. This operation is very simple but differs significantly from other vehicles, which can be confusing at least the first time. To do this, exit the cabin as there is no lever inside, then move to the front of the vehicle, grasp the Ford emblem, and turn it to the left. Once done, insert the key into the designated lock and turn it counterclockwise to unlock it. At this point, turn the key in the opposite direction and fully lift the bonnet.
