there is only one way, you have to get a socket, i think 13 mm and enough extensions to unbolt the latch from the hood
Take a flat screw driver and use it to push the spring away from the hood latch. Locate the screw driver at the end of the cable. This works for mine.
I dont belive you can; it may have stretched, so I would suggest you replace it before it breaks and locks your hood down.
This can be rather tuff........you must grab the hood release cable from the underside of the vehicle. Sometimes, you can trip open the hood latch with a long screwdriver, if you know where to do it.
take the bolts off the cover then pull the wire
The hood release cable.
Hood release cable has connector nuts on both ends of the cable. Loosen the connector nuts. Remove the cable retainers. The cable will come off and can be replaced with a new hood release cable.
The hood release handle is connected to a cable. The cable runs to the front of the hood and connects to a catch. When the cable is pulled the catch releases the hood.
look if the cable breaks u can take a flat head and jam it where the hood is locked down and try to wiggle the release u need a long screw driver it took me 1 hour to do it but i got the job done!
A socket Wrench with an extention. There are 3 bolts you can reach, through the grill. Remove the bolts and the latch will release from the body and lift with the hood. The rest is easy!!!! RL
The hood release cable is held in place by a retaining nut on each end of the cable. Remove the retaining nuts and the cable placement retainers. Reverse the process to install the new hood release cable.

Pull the hood release cable by your left foot.
