I own a 92 with the same problem. You have to gain access from underneath with a socket wrench and long extensions to take off the top part of the release that is mounted to the underneath of the hood. I have the cable dropped down with a plastic "T" Handle tied to the end of the cable so that I can pull the release until I can find a replacement cable. I have been looking but have yet to find one. Hope this helps
omg u Have to go thru the grill and pull the release latch
my Beretta is a 94 and it hood release is broke just the silver cable show ,,, i use needle nose pliers and pull it !
If you remove the grill from the front of the truck you can then access the safety latch and hood release. My latch had rusted so I had to do this using a flat head screw driver and lifting the safety latch which allowed for the hood release to open.
how to get a 2001 isuzu trooper hood open if release cable is broken
I go crazy everytime I have to open the hood on my 98 Chevy Astro. The guys just say "oh it's a Chevy" and they bang the hood. I have found that if I stick a butter knife unde the hood I can open it. What a pain!
To open the hood on the 2000 Beetle if the hood release lever is broken inside the car, you can remove the glove compartment of the vehicle and find the release cable inside the dashboard. Pull the cable to open the hood. You will then need to replace the hood release lever.?æ
Get someone to hold the hood release lever while you pull up on the hood.

Take it to a body shop as they have to open then on wrecks.
Climb under the front of the engine compartment with a coat hanger and a flashlight, reach up and grab the latch and pull it down.
Use a large long blade screwdriver thru grill & turn latch, you will see the hole in the latch. No damage done.
There is no such thing as a Chrysler Caprice Classic. Chevy made a car called the Caprice (I had a 1969).
