its probably the one cable broke or the outer come out of the bracket it fits into,the way to get at it is to take off the front bumper/fender then you can take the front flashers out (with a good pull) then both headlights then unplug both foglights and you can then get at the catches easy without breaking anything,destroying the grill will not help at all the bumper is held on by 3 nuts each side ,it just slides out of the side panels and you can take it off on the floor in about 1 hour

How do you repair the hood latch for the 1991 Mercedes 190E 2.6 the handle in the car that opens the hood does not work it does not pop the hood?
The hood is openned by a cable that links the handle in the car the hood latch. If the cable is broken or detached then the hood will not open. The cable has two parts, an outer covering and the actual cable that pulls on the hood latch when the inside handle is pulled, you need to check the inside handle to see if the cable is still attached to the handle, also you need to check the hood latch to see if that end is still attached to the hood latch. If either is disconnected the you will need to get appropriate hardware(nuts,bolts etc) to attach it back but if the cable is broken it has to be replaced complete. This you might or might not be able to do depending on you skill and proficiency with tools.

How do you open the hood of your Volvo s70 if the cable is broke?
If the hood release cable is broken on your Volvo S70, you can open the hood manually by accessing the latch mechanism directly. First, locate the hood release lever under the dashboard and inspect the cable; if it's detached, you may be able to pull on the cable itself with pliers. If that doesn't work, you can reach under the front grille or use a long screwdriver to push the lever of the hood latch, which is typically located near the center. It may take some finesse, but this should allow you to lift the hood.
