I have done this in the past on some vehicles. Try to look through the grill and locate the hood latch mechanism. If you can see and reach the cable, grab it with a pair of needle nose plyers or such and pull hard to release the catch. If the cable is not visable, try a long screw driver to push the latch open. Hope this helps. Good luck! LDE

How can you open your 2002 Kia Spectra hood if the cable release is broken?

If the cable release is broken for the hood on a 2002 Kia Spectra, a person could crawl under the car and see if they can locate the broken part of the cable. If it is still attached to the hood, they could pull it to trip the hood latch. Otherwise, the car will have to be put on a hoist, and a long pole used to trip the hood latch.
