Bang the hood above the latch while someone pulls the hood release from in the car. Good luck.
cable broke release latch for the hood can't open it
actually I broke the hood release latch on my 1991 Plymouth voyager, and I can't get the hood open, what can I do?
While pulling the release latch, try pounding on the top of the hood once or twice to break it loose. Those hoods have a tendency to stick sometimes. If you're not comfortable with pounding on your hood, try pressing down on it a couple of times with the palms of your hand at the front before pulling the release latch.
i have a Chevy s-10 1990 and the hood wont release, and the latch is broke. what should i do
pry bar and duc tape
your local junkyard or try a dealer
go to pisk a part and get a used one. If their is one there.
Reach up under the center with a long screwdriver and open it.
take a long thin screwdriver and stick it into the "hole" where the cable goes into the latch. Pry from right to left, this will pop the hood. I just had it happen to my 2000 Dakota.
I have a 1994 Grand Prix. My hood latch cable also broke. I can't seem to find the assemble to open it manualy. Can anyone help me?
do you know where it broke at if it near the handle use vise grips if it is farther down th line you can get a extrnal hood latch kit.
To open the hood when the cable is broken on a 1997 Silverado, you can try using a coat hanger to manipulate the latch and push it away from you. You could also try using a long screwdriver to move the hood latch.
