If you shine a flashlight into the front grille, you might be able locate a small (pea-sized) c-shaped hook in the latch. If you can see it, place a screwdriver in there and pull firmly to the right. This is a manual release mechanism that will trip the hood open, in lieu of the cable.

my 2001 does the same thing. its the spring in the latch release. I have to have my wife sit in the car and keep popping the hood release while i push in and up and down on the hood right where the latch release is over and over and eventually it gives. Once you get the hang of it you can do it by yourself.
