Get a screw driver and mimick the bonnet latching into the catch, it will probably be a bit stiff, I sprayed degreaser etc initially and when freed up, some white (lithium?) grease to try and keep it free.
If you spray all pivot points with the latch closed and open (helper inside the car pulling the bonnet release helps speed this up) and just keep at it so everything frees up and releases back quicker etc it should do the trick.
The sensor is buried away a bit but I think it must be trigger/not triggered by part of the mechanism and by freeing it up you can make sure the sensor get the inputs it needs.
