To fix a hood release cable, start by inspecting the cable for any visible damage or obstructions. If the cable is broken or frayed, you may need to replace it; this typically involves removing the old cable from the release lever and the latch mechanism, and then installing a new one. If the cable is stuck or jammed, applying lubricant can help free it. Finally, ensure that all connections are secure and test the release function before closing the hood.
