On the Ford Explorer you pull the hood release inside the vehicle which causes the hood to pop up slightly. Then you reach in through the grill at the front of the Explorer, near the top of the grill just under the hood and slightly left of the center of the grill. Move the secondary catch lever to the right and lift the hood. If the hood won't open, a second person inside pulling on the hood release while the other person operates the secondary catch lever may be necessary if the latch needs to be lubricated.
