To open the hood on a 1993 VW Eurovan with a broken hood release cable, you can manually pull the hood latch. First, access the latch by removing the front grille or, if possible, reaching through the wheel well or under the vehicle. Use a flathead screwdriver or a similar tool to push the latch mechanism toward the driver's side. Exercise caution to avoid damaging the latch or surrounding components.
I would trace cable and use vice grips. Cable is likely dealer only and expensive.IE: Find it and rig it!
Its very easy. You can look by the brake pedal and there is a release lever with a hole in it. just pull the lever towards you and it will release.
Yes.
Internal cable in antenna broken?

Remove the grill
Open the hood as far as you can then use a flat-blade screwdriver to pust the latch. Just remember to always carry the tool and a flashlight to locate the latch.
Battery cable connections broken or battery busted.
IF YOU REMOVE THE BATTERY YOU CAN SEE THE THE CABLE TAPE THE OLD TO THE NEW END AND PULL IT THROUGH
The logical problem - would be a broken speedo cable. The speedo & odometer are both run from the same cable.
my 2001 does the same thing. its the spring in the latch release. I have to have my wife sit in the car and keep popping the hood release while i push in and up and down on the hood right where the latch release is over and over and eventually it gives. Once you get the hang of it you can do it by yourself.
If it has a cable attached to the throtle linkage, release it by moving the locking tang and pulling the cable all the way to the rear. Then get inside and floor the accelerator and it will automatically adjust the cable.
