stuck hood latch on 1999 Eclipse

Asked by jstaylorga Nov 17, 2011 at 06:44 PM about the 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I can't get my hood open. When I pull the release inside the car there is tension so I don't think the cable is broken. How can I manually get the hood open? Is there a way under the car to reach up and release something?
