If the hood release cable is broken on a 1998 GMC Sierra, you can try accessing the hood latch directly. Use a flathead screwdriver or a similar tool to pry open the hood near the latch area, which is typically located just above the grille. Alternatively, you might need to reach under the vehicle or into the engine compartment to manually pull the latch mechanism. If these methods fail, it may be necessary to seek professional assistance.
If the cable is broken, tke it to the body shop as they have to open hoods on wrecks.
You can try unscrewing the grille and getting your hand or tools up to the latch.
you get the cable fixed then open it
