Question
Hi. The pull latch cable won't open the hood on my pickup.
What will I need to do to get the hood open? Thank you.
The old fashioned coat hanger way.You will need to look under the grille and try to see if you can catch the metal hook which the cable is connected to.It can be done with patience but is pretty tricky.The wire or a long screwdriver works so you can be able to push it to the right or pull it to the right.
