How do you open a Ford Expedition hood with broken latch?
I had to do this on my 97 Ford Explorer a month ago or so. It's easy. You should be able to go through the grill from the outside and unscrew the four bolts or so on the hood release mechanism (reassuring huh?) From there, lift the hood and the latch mechanism should come out with the hood. Detach the cable from the latch mechanism(if your cable is fine, you're in great luck) Take the latch to a junkyard and find one that looks similar(same position of bolt holes, and latch) Attach the cable to the new latch, attach the new latch to your car, it might take a while positioning it so it lines up right but I did it myself for only fifteen bucks.(cost of latch at junkyard from a different pickup).

Remove the grill to access the broken cable. Cut the cable or see if the latch can be pushed manually. Broken cables have to be replaced totally. There are 2 or 3 screws under the dash and you will have to remove the bottom dash panel if it is still there. There are several plastic clips under the hood that can be reused, just follow the cable to find them. and there is a rubber grommet on the cable holding it in the firewall, this can be pushed into the car from under the hood and the new one pushed back in with a screwdriver. Other than that it is easy to remove the old cable from the latch and install the new one. You can get a good cable fairly cheap from a junk yard, just make sure the one you get is not damaged or corroded. Or if you prefer, a new replacement cable can be used.
