Hood Release.. How to open when Cable is Broken Posted by Jon [Email] (#11) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Jon) on Sun, 28 Oct 2007 04:11:40 In Reply to: 92 900T Hood Release How to open when Cable is Broken, Michael [Profile/Gallery] , Sat, 27 Oct 2007 13:25:59 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Michael,
I bent a piece of 1/8" stainless steel welding rod to open the hood. See the link. Sometimes I have had luck looping the welding rod behind the cable and pulling forward. This only works if the two screws securing the cable sleeve are tight. They were not tight this time. I had to get the bent rod into the latch assembly to open the hood on this car. Make sure you keep the two screws tight.
Good luck,
Jon
