My Hood Release Broke!!
Re: My Hood Release Broke!!
Usually the problem is where the hood release cable connects to the red plastic hood release handle. Look there to see if the cable broke or may have just come out of the handle. If the cable is there, you should be able to pull it with a pair of pliers to open the hood. Let us know what you find . . .

No such luck. The red lever is in perfect condition and when I disconnected the cable the lever returned to the correct position. The cable is pulled, but does not release the hood. I was looking through the grill this afternoon and couldn't see where the cable connects.

Did you try to push it down hard at the middle where the latch is? Might be stuck in a 'floating' position?...

Having been here a while most problems have popped up and when a new post on an old problem appears I often remember the previous ones.
