I apreciate the response but this really doesent help me .. I no I can use vise grips to pull the cable .. But I don't no how to get to it
if its broken under the hood you will need to go underneath the car look up to where the hood latches and reach up you should be able to put your finger into where the latch release is or to see the plastic cable.you will feel a lever and you need to pull it towards the drivers side, Have a flashlight with you.
You have to get it open first in order to replace the cable...its an easy job to replace...
