Question Hood latch

Remove this ad
My hood latch is broken, Is it something that I would be able to fix myself up? DYI? or Do I have to take it to the dealership?

Thanks,

Re: Hood latch

It depends on the nature of the problem and what your skill level is. Will it not latch or is it stuck closed? Has the release cable broken? A good place to start would be to buy a subscription at www.alldata.com or purchase a factory service manual at www.helminc.com.

Re: Hood latch

The release cable has been torned off from the handle bracket.
