When the hood release isn't working, take a wire coat hanger and stretch it out as straight as you can. Ben one end to make a hook. Slide the hook in through the grill of the car and catch the hook around the release. Be careful not to puncture the radiator. Pull the hanger in the direction that will release the hood. At the same time, press down on the hood.

How do you open a hood with a broken latch cable on a 1997 Dodge Intrepid?

i have a 1994 pnotiac sunbird that the handle broke off on the cable under the dash to open the hood. you can open the hood with a little patience and a fairly long screwdriver by releasing the latch under the hood. after this, on my sunbird, i just pulled the cable all the way out under the hood, tied it under the front of the car, and just pull it to release the switch. (thats only because i am too cheap and lazy to spend the money and time on a cable and install it.)
