hood latch cable broken, how do I open the hood?
The hood on my '91 Accord EX wouldn't close. It turned out to be that the hood latch cable was broken. I removed the cable and then put the hood down, (the hood that wouldn't close) it closed and latched. Now I can't get it open, what do I do? -- majorwar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ View this thread: http://www.carstalk.net/viewtopic-381259.html Send from http://www.carstalk.net |

If it broke at the lever, a pair of pliers may suffice to grab what's left. If it broke near the latch, then what jim said. -- TeGGeR® The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
