Re: [DML] Re: Hood won't pop up



To avoid damage to the metal loop, gently lower the hood to rest on the latch, then place the base of your palm on the hood over the latch and push down until the latch clicks.  Never drop the hood down on the latch to close it.

Make sure the metal loop on the hood (bonnet) locates right in the
middle of the latch without rubbing on the sides. Adjust the latch
left or right to do this, enlarge the bolt holes if you have to. The
other thing is there are 2 springs in the lock. Take the cover off and
shorten the smaller spring a little. Add a back-up emergency cable in
case the cable should break again. Lubricate the lock, that always
helps too.
