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!!!!!!
on my BMW 3 series da hood cable is stuck how do i open my hood
You don't. You call a locksmith and have him open the door.
Burn it
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.
Try using the key to open the lock mechanism while the door is unlocked.
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.
open the hood, pour a gallon of gasoline into the engine compartment...then throw a lit match into the mix.
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.
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.

I have the same car. You can find the information if you open up the hood and look up at the underside of it. Mine was .052-.056
