How do you open the hood on a Nissan Frontier if you have a broken hood cable?

How do you open the hood of a 1993 buick lesabre if the inside latch won't work?
I had problems with my hood latch on a 1993 Le Sabre. My mechanic showed me how to open the hood. Pull the lever back just enough to pop the latch. Do not pull the lever any further than that or it will not work. Once you get the hang of it you will have no problems. Good luck.

Either hold down slightly on the hood and pull the latch or hold the latch and pull up on the hood. The lock becomes dry and doesn't release. Spray with WD40 or similar product.
How do i open the hood of my 2002 ram if the latch cable doesn't work?
If the cable or lever isn't "broken" try this, first be sure the hood is shut tight then operate the hood release, then go around to the front of the vehicle and by using the side of your fist give the front of the hood a firm thump. Sometimes this will release the hood from the latch. If it opens give the latch mechanism a good lubrication before you shut the hood.
How do you open the hood when the cable on the hood latch is broken.?
As with any car question it depends on the vehicle. You could try prying the hood open with your hands or taking a flat tool to use for a lever to pry it open. You could also try jacking up the car and if you have a long enough arm you oculd work the latch from underneath. If you know how to do it yourself you could replace the hood cable as well. Best of luck

How do you open hood on 89 Winnebago chieftain?
If the hood release does not work, the front grill comes off by removing 4-5 small screws. That allows access to the latch so it can be opened by pulling the cable or moving the latch itself. My hood release works when it wants to. It is very moody.
