Hood Release Cable Posted by Bill Homer [Email] (#3427) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Bill Homer) on Mon, 13 Sep 2010 11:54:55 In Reply to: Well, no. Sorry 'bout that!, Noel, Mon, 13 Sep 2010 06:06:14 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Unless the cable is broken, they can be lubed and adjusted so the hood opening operation is returned to normal. There are two steel balls held on to the cable by set screws that can get moved away from where they are supposed to be; fairly easy adjustment (most likely in the direction back "up" the cable towards the release lever). Much easier to do this while you can still open the hood!!! Also spray some white grease into the latch mechanism to free up the release action.
