How to open hood when cable snaps.
Hello, I am looking for some help here. My cable that attatches my latch to the handle has snapped. before I take it to the dealer I need to get a oil change so i need to open the hood. Is there another way to open it without busting it up more then it has to. I drive a 2008 f-150 lariat. Thanks for your help.

Use a pair of pliers and pull the cable.
