on my BMW 3 series da hood cable is stuck how do i open my hood
When the hood is stuck you need to push down on the hood just above the "H", sometimes quite hard. Then the hood release will work and open the hood.
You can open a stuck hood by removing the hood latch. The hood latch can be access through the front grill. Remove the code latch retaining bolts. The hood should be free to open.
To open the hood on a PT Cruiser when it is stuck insert a screw driver into the grill to pry the latch loose. Once loose use pliers to open it.
The hood on my girlfriend's Escort has issues with the hood release. I have always just stuck something in the hood release under the dash while I opened it via the lever under the hood.
Reach through the plastic grill and pull cable!!!!!!
Rock got stuck under the hood in the latch release.
go under the bumper and find the cable that runs to the hood and pull it realy hard
I had the same problem had someone push down hard on the front hood while I pulled the inside hood release then put wd 40 lubricant.
spray it from the inside with wd40 see if that helps...
First check to see that the hood is shut tight. then operate the hood release then go around to the front of the hood and give the nose of the hood a firm thump down with the side of your fist. Many times this will release the hood latch. Once open, lubricate the latch and stretch the pop up spring out a little with your hand.
Either get someone to pull and hold the hood release lever open or find some other means, like using the seatbelt, and then try pulling up on the hood. This should pop the hood, and then of course to fully open the hood you would need to find the release latch that is under the hood but above the grill, to the left of center. The hood release mechanism may be stuck or need some lube and a little working.
