86940, hood wont open....any thoughts?
Posted by ScreaminE, Jul-07-05 06:41 AM
Yeah like it says. My hood won't open. I havent got much of a chance to check it out, but when I try to pop it with the latch inside, nothing happens. Just like my shitty fuel door.

Anyone ever had similiar troubles?

yeah the cable poped off start with the lever on the inside of the car take the piece off the the lever is attached to its not that hard lime maybe 5 bolts than drop the whole unit and you should see what the problem is if its not there than your latch on the other end under the hood broke, in which case i have no idea how to pop it

Have someone lift on the hood as you pull the lever. If it opens, try twisting the black knobs on the sides near the headlights under the hood. They adjust the height the hood sits at....sometimes it helps to adjust those for it to open easier...just a thought.

You are the man Ryan...I just remembered how I was screwing around with those knobs when I was putting my intercooler in. I'm a tard.
