Question
I try to pull the hood release lever but the hood does not open. How can I open
the hood?
Depends where the cable has snapped.It may be under the dash.If its under the hood,you may be able to pull the cable with a long screwdriver or coathanger wire.It can be tricky but it is possible through the grille.If its under the dash,pull the cable with a pair of pliers.
