How to Remove and Install a Hood Latch and Release Cable?

To remove the latch, first remove the plastic panel over the radiator and the plastic grille support if equipped. Disconnect the wiring harness from the latch and remove the mounting bolts to detach the latch assembly. To remove the release cable, disconnect it from the hood latch assembly and remove the driver's kick panel to expose the cable and handle. Separate the cable end from the handle and release the cable housing end from the tab on the handle. On truck models, loosen the mounting fasteners to the parking brake pedal assembly to allow the cable to pull through behind it. In the engine compartment, pull the cable grommet away from the firewall and detach the cable from the mounting points. To install the latch or release cable, follow the reverse steps of removal and adjust the latch if necessary.
